[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is not a seed. We found this hairy worm at our water works. I am not sure if it is a worm or caterpillar, but could not resist taking a picture while it was curled up around the blade of grass. I will post a further photo of it while it is walking.

I've never seen a creature like it. Great detail, lines, and curves.

Hi Andre,
that curl around the grass looks fascinating!
Well taken picture report, drawing attention at once.
Looking forward to see it outstretched
then maybe we find out what it is!
Thank you for sharing.
Best regards,
Peter

Hi ANdre, this is wonderful shot. Interesting animal ( if you sad so) and good POV

If you say that it's a worm/caterpillar it would be! You have found a rare creature. I miss a second photo that shows the nature of this creature!
Good photo and good finding!

Hello,
This is no doubt a caterpillar, very hairy one!
You have captured it in a great pose and with some good details. The BG isn't very interesting, maybe smaller f-stop would work a bit better.
Anyway, well done on this one!
