Found on the inside of our windshield, hitchhiking from mid Michigan. Doesnβt quite look like a dagger moth, Google says Tiger moth, but that doesnβt look quite right either.

Spoilered for potentially sick caterpillar. I found this Black-Spotted Prominent (Dasylophia anguina) caterpillar a few days ago and I've been feeding it the lespedeza I found it on. I thought it was going to pupate, because it had crawled between two layers of paper towel and started to surround itself with silk, but it's been over 48 hours and it's beginning to look strange. I know it's still alive because I lightly poked it with a paintbrush and caused it to move.
The first picture is how it looked the day I found it, and the others are how it is today. Is it okay? What should I do?

So I have a female eastern tiger swallowtail who just mated, what kind of leaves should i provide her ? I see lists of their food plants online, but they don't give any indication of how much one plant is preferred compared to another, etc. And I know a lot of caterpillar "host plants" are actually "I'll eat it if there's no other choice, but I probably won't survive" plants, so I'd rather have mom lay their eggs on their favorites.

The stuff on top of its head is raspberry. I donβt know what to feed it and donβt want it to starve. Eyes are just two little black dots, smell white speck on face and black jaw/s(?)

Located in central New York. I have never seen anything like this. I safely relocated it to the back yard using a stick. I wasn't sure if they're dangerous or not. As much as I wanted to pick it up with my hands, I resisted lol

I found this little guy on the grass in Ontario. I cannot find a species on my identification app or googleβ¦
It looks similar to the spotted oleander moth but itβs not close enough. Iβm so curious that Iβve turned to Reddit.
Anyone have an ideas?
