lid says...
I don't have a digital camera, but they were caterpillars
Were there 'tents' on the tree?
no tents, no "fur" and slightly different coloring
If so, look up tent caterpillar.
In numbers, they can strip trees bare.
We usually knock the tents apart before they get too far along.
If I had noticed them, I would have done that
thanks
