Tent Caterpillars.
Is it only my area that seems overrun with these? I noticed a few days ago the abundance of these caterpillars around my house. I paid them little attention, other than the fact that there was a lot of them. I noticed them on the rhubarb, but they seemed to be just crawling around rather than eating.
Today I strolled past my fairly neglected blueberries. The bushes looked a bit odd. Upon closer inspection, I determined that they HAD NO LEAVES. The plants were covered with these caterpillars and decimated.
