Rare swallowtail caterpillar

Today I found this beautiful and huge caterpillar sitting on my dill (Anethum graveolens) in the veggie garden.

It is (or will be) a swallowtail butterfly (Papilio machaon) which makes me really happy because they have become so rare that they are now a highly protected species in Germany. Hopefully it will develop into this

It´s been featured ages ago on one of our stamps.

Found another swallowtail caterpillar on my parsley!!!

He's a much younger little guy, younger than the last 3 I took care of a while ago. Such a cutie!!

#i think he'll have enough time to pupate and all that jazz #lets see if he'll hibernate during the winter-if he has no parasites that is!#my photos #black swallowtail #swallowtail caterpillar #caterpillars #insects tw #bugs tw

Watch "Pipevine Swallowtail Caterpillar | Cute Caterpillar #shorts #cutecritters #caterpillar #butterfly" on YouTube

This cool looking Pipevine Swallowtail Caterpillar was neat to watch. It was running around on the side of the road, where we were walking in a local park.

The story of Fred

Fred is a black swallowtail butterfly, who I found as a caterpillar at my work.

I found him on June 29th.

He spent the next few days munching on parsley, a favourite of swallowtails.

Then on July 5th, he started the process of preparing to become a chrysalis!

By the next day, he'd shed his old skin and become a chrysalis!

The next week and a bit were uneventful (to me, for Fred, it was very busy!)

Then on July 17th, his chrysalis became clear! A sure sign he was almost ready!

And lo and behold, the very same day, Fred re-emerged into the world as a beautiful male black swallowtail!!!

He was released the following day, July 18th, as the sun had been set for about a half hour by the time I had got home from work and I didn’t think it’d be a good idea to release him in the dark.
