What is it?

 
An easy post for today.
 
What is it?
 
 
 
While raking leaves this past November, we found two of these caterpillars.  I haven't tried to look them up, but if I had been in a rush, instead of enjoying my work, I would have missed them all together.


At first, I thought it was a "wooly bully" caterpillar.  But, upon closer inspection, it is not half black and half rust, as they are.  This one has black "bristles" and the rust/red is more of their actual body than hair.  They were much larger as well.

When you are out, in your yard, doing chores, do you take the time to notice the world around you?
