Soon we should have oodles of butterflies, for now we are crawling with caterpillars.
Big fat hairy green ones in the guava trees, black and blue prickly ones crawling around the terrace and a brown and red bumpy one on my bedroom window screen and clusters of black ones traveling in convoy up the driveway.
We have been battling caterpillars in the garden, on the fruit trees and close to the house. The girls can not go in their favorite climbing trees, no wondering outside with no shoes and spraying some of them with dishwashing soap. Certain types are poisonous others not. The problem is I do not know which.
Mañana butterflies.
