Orchard Swallowtail Pupation

From the video's description: This is the Orchard Swallowtail caterpillar's (Papilio Aegeus) pupation process. More info can be found here: http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisba... or simply google it.

This was incredibly tedius to film... I stayed up from 10:40pm and watched this caterpillar until around 12:20am JUST so I could find the right moment to start recording. Extremely boring and tiring, but was very rewarding in the end.

These look so damn similar to Metapods...

Music used: Nabucco - Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves, by Giuseppe Verdi
