Aren't They Cute?

Five day old HHD larva. They have been dining solely on sweet gum leaves and have refused walnut, hickory and sycamore. Go figure.

 This is on the tip of a sweet gum leaf

 This is extreme macro

Here's a quick video of the larva eating.  Note how it goes back and forth and scoops out a shape that fits it's head. In the last 3-5 seconds you will see it defecate.
