Caught!

Turns out that it really WAS a very hungry catepillar eating up my basil. I went out super early one morning and caught him red handed. Or green legged, whatever. Of course I had to take pictures. I did not have the heart to squash him, so I put him inside the hurricane glass that goes to a lantern but he managed to crawl out after a while. I am one of the few people on earth who really cannot abide butterflies, so I was kind of glad he got away. Thanfully, he hasn't made his way back to my basil.
