Nature creates wonders all around us and in our busy lives we often ignore these wonderful beauties But if suddenly at one moment an unknown creature comes into our eyes it makes our minds think I recently had such an experience when a light white yellow colored hairy insect came into our eyes which was undoubtedly a wonderful sight I captured a picture of this insect with my mobile phone vivo Y77 Through the picture its soft hairy body, four cotton like white tufts along its back and a clear black spot near its head which may seem like it is wearing its own mask are revealed After much research it was found that it is probably the Toothed White Tussock Moth Caterpillar whose scientific name is Orgyia leucostigma They are usually hairy and colorful and are often easily noticed because of their appearance Although there are many subspecies and some differences in characteristics their common characteristics are fine hairs all over their bodies and cotton like tufts on their backs which distinguish them from other insects.
This type of caterpillar usually lives on the leaves of trees and feeds on leaves Although they are beautiful to look at some species can cause allergies or itching on human skin so it is important to be careful Looking at the picture you can see how wonderfully the fine white yellow hairs on this insect are spread The black mark on the head creates a mysterious look which makes it even more attractive This was not taken with a professional camera but with an ordinary smart phone but its beauty is unmatched While taking this photograph I was almost silently and slowly moving the camera forward so that it would not be scared I was really fascinated by such delicate features of this small creature of nature We can learn a lot from nature through this small insect He reminds us beauty can be hidden not only in big or magnificent things but also in smaller creatures All you need is to take a little time to look around and observe carefully.
In addition such insects and spiders maintain the balance of our environment They eat leaves survive on their own and later transform into butterflies or moths and help in pollination Therefore these harmless little creatures are an important part of our biodiversity Today's experience has made me understand once again that nature is never static There is always unknown beauty hiding all around us we just need the eyes to find it Just as my day became beautiful after suddenly meeting this furry insect I have tried to convey the beauty of that moment to you by sharing these pictures and experiences Next time you go outside to the park garden or rooftop try to look around a little more carefully Who knows maybe you'll see someone with such unique beauty that you'll think I ve never seen that before.
