Found this critter exploring our garden pot on our back deck today (9/22/10). I’ve never seen a caterpillar with antennae like that or with those things along its back. Any idea what this is?

Hi Brian,
This is a White Marked Tussock Moth Caterpillar, Orgyia leucostigma, or another member of the genus. You may find additional information in our archives and on Bugguide.
