Old world Swallowtail caterpillar I found for the first time in August 2025. There were two of them. I think these are a gem for macro photographers!

Hello!! This is my #introduction post i suppose. I'm Lavali, I do art, focusing on naturalist illustration and I love drawing birds! I'm pretty new to socials so I'm still figuring out how to do stuff. I was on instagram, but stopped for a while, and when I came back it sucked so :/ Here's some #art

Day 24 after eclosion — still alive. Slight wing movement this morning, no feeding yet. Quiet strength endures.
