I checked eNature.com and Google Image Search and cannot find anything quite like these. Will keep checking.

Could it be a Yellow Wooly Bear Caterpillar? I think yours looks more spikey than fuzzy though. Great pic!

Could it be a pale tussock moth caterpillar? They eat oaks, willows and poplars. Have you looked at http://whatsthatbug.com/ ? Scroll down and you will see a menu of all sorts of insect critters and caterpillars.

Hi Thornius ![[wavey]](im/graemlins/wavey.gif)
Have you found out more?
LandOfOz,
I agree, don't think its a Yellow Wooly Bear cat.![[Frown]](im/frown.gif)

American Dagger?, too hairy
Thanks for the site.
gailo, pale tussock moth? Hummm, I don't think so I should ask "What's that Bug" or Bug Guide.
plants 'n pots, Thanks!
After reading everyone's post and going to these sites, I think these little guys are in the moth family.
Others input?

Okay folks. thanks to Cindy/afgreyparrot, and another thread I started to ascertain identification of a caterpillar, I now know what these little fellas turn in to, Io Moth Butterflies. A pretty picture but that's all as they are poisoneous and venomous caterpillars.
Here's a look at the adult caterpillar.
The website I went to showed earlier instar larve. They are yellow and follow as a train.
ANOTHER CASE SOLVED!![[Big Grin]](im/biggrin.gif)

At first glance, I thought it was one catepillar but three marching on behind one another. I had to laugh!!
Does anyone know what butterfly they will turn in to? BTW - I captured them and was wondering what plant food they prefer eating? Hoping I have it in my garden. I think I need an answer soon if I want them to live!
