This active little green guy is from the class Insecta, order Lepidoptera, family Geometridae. This Geometridae was found by Rebecca and Kaithlyn hanging out on the broccoli plants.
Rebecca,
I found him when I was pulling weeds. Kaitlyn didn't see him at first. He was very well camouflaged. At first, I thought the grass was alive. Then I knew what it was. It was a huge green wormy Caterpillar.
Kaitlyn,
I identified the caterpillar when Rebecca picked it up. It was green like the plant it was on. It had stripes that were white. The caterpillar moved like a cut worm that's why it looked like a cut worm. The caterpillar was small and moved cool. The caterpillar eats on broccoli.
