My entry for the 7 DAYS STEEMIT MACRO-PHOTOGRAPHY CHALLENGE by @flamingirl

Meet the Alien Caterpillar. Lol.
This little guy, which happens to look a bit like an alien has a name “Daphnis nerii” or the Oleander Hawk-moth. The bluish eyes and the strange black brows make them look like an alien but according to my research, they aren’t eyes. They are actually spots.

Here is the whole body of the Daphnis nerii, such a cutie little caterpillar. Looks like this guy is starring at me because of his bluish spot. Look at the little yellow tail, so cute. Hehe.

I intentionally captured some pictures of this guy because I was actually searching in our garden some little stuff that I can use for my entry for #macro-photography challenge initiated by Hive account@flamingirl.

Glad I saw this little creature, it was my first time seeing this Daphnis nerii.

Thanks for dropping by!
