Three On A Tree

[Dean_Gretsch]

I am not sure what these caterpillars are exactly ( maybe silkworms? ), but they are voracious eaters. I remember seeing them at this same location last year but I believe there are more than last year. They almost look like they have been dusted with powdered sugar in the white stage.

Here is a bad pic showing a different stage if that helps anyone identify them. Thanks!

I think its a Dogwood Sawfly. They are not caterpillars and are part of the bee, wasp family. Adults look like wasps.

Not my definition of "Three on a Tree". Lol.

Interesting. Don't think I've ever seen these before. Nice set.

I do believe you nailed it Brent. When I googled " white caterpillars in Pa " these did not show up. Now I know why. Thanks!

Thanks. My first car was a '67 Chevelle with " 3 on the tree ".
