Daniel,
Thanks for your help in identifying the Cimbex Sawfly Larvae last year, this is my question for this year. Thanks

Hi again Kim,
This year you have a new species for us, the Brown Hooded Owlet Moth Caterpillar, Cucullia convexipennis. Your photo shows it on one of its food plants, goldenrod. It also eats asters.
