Fall Webworm

Caterpillar
Caterpillar of the Fall Webworm Moth, Hyphantria cunea
Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge 2007-08-26

Like many moths, this one is easier to find as a caterpillar than an adult. This picture is quite a bit larger than life-size. They’re only about an inch long.

Thanks to Bobby Grizzard for the ID.
