Caterpillar on Rock, NSW
This caterpillar is clearly on a rock-climbing mission.
The path along the Korogoro Track offered more than sweeping ocean views—it brought me face to face with the small and often overlooked details of life. A solitary caterpillar inched its way across a rock, its tiny legs working tirelessly against the rough surface. The intricacy of its markings was striking, as if nature had painted it with deliberate care. It moved with an unhurried determination that felt almost meditative. I crouched down to observe it more closely, marveling at how something so small could hold such quiet dignity. Around me, the wind whispered through the trees, carrying with it the scent of damp earth and salt from the nearby sea. The world felt both vast and intimate in that moment.
