[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Thaumetopoea pytiocampa. Denis&Schifermüller. Notodontidae, Thaumetopoeinae.


Oruga en sus últimos estadios, aún dentro del bolsón casi todas ellas y rodeadas de excrementos. Pronto iniciarán la bajada del árbol en procesión para enterrarse en el suelo para seguir su ciclo vital.
En mi zona y otras muchas de España es una auténtica plaga en los pinos.

Hi Josep!

I like your "hairy" picture very much. The colours and patterns are amazing, and the perfect sharpness reveals fine details. Moreover, it's interesting to see in which environment these caterpillars live, although they seem to be a nuisance.

Kind regards

Markus

Hola Josep !
Que bella imagen de estas orugas ! He entendido de esta plaga, pero nunca les visto en la realidad (afortunadamente). Me gustan los detalles en tu foto, podemos ver cada paqueño pelo de las orugas.Bonita composicion y punto de vista, colors muy naturales. Agradecidos y saludos,
Valérie.

Hi Ignasi
Great educational presentation. I have never seen the catapillars of this species. I would like to see a wider POV ;-)
TFS
