In my yard, I stumbled upon something quite unusual.
At first, it looked like a long, twisting rope resting on the grass, seemingly placed there intentionally. But then I wondered, “What if it’s a snake?!” My heart started to race.
I quickly grabbed my phone, snapped a picture, and, feeling excited, began to move closer. Each step felt rigid; the idea of encountering something dangerous was terrifying.
As I approached closely enough to see, I was struck with terror. There was no rope. It wasn’t a snake, either. In front of me was a slow-moving line of about 150 caterpillars, which I eventually counted!
