Today has been cloudy with a little bit of rain.

I went up the garden this afternoon and found the biggest caterpillar I have ever seen.  It didn't pick it up because it had a spike thing on its back.  I have never seen a caterpillar with a spike before.  I took lots of photos of it as it moved along the grass.  We looked on the internet to find out what type of caterpillar it is.  We think it is called a hornworm.  Have a look at this big caterpillar.
