Since I am an amateur, I thought it'd be easier to group the caterpillers together until they are identified and that I have a photo of the moth/butterfly as well.

This pretty butterfly visited my garden briefly before promptly being hunted and eaten by my cat.

A decent sized moth that flys during the daytime.

A fiery fellow that is distrbuited from northeastern United States all the way south to Patagonia.

This moth is an iridescent blue creature that flys during the daytime. It is rather difficult to get a nice shot with my cameras.
