One last pose. When I see imperials visiting my backyard lamp I'll be wondering if it might be him (or her).

Great sequence Troy
That was really neat and worth the effort Troy, I was surprised at how much the coloration and physical features change.

I second the motion
I second Tony's remarks! This is a great series and maybe will encourage all of us to get out there and document life histories in a series like this. Way to go, Troy!
The egg shot where you can see the caterpillar inside is particularly neat.
