Woolly Worm Weather Do-Over

Boonies

The first woolly worm I found this year predicted a cold, hard winter. What rational choice did I have but to disqualify it and seek a replacement? Look at this woolly worm! I love this one! See all the brown on this one! It’s predicting a short, mild winter. What a sweet woolly. :heart:

If this works, I’m gonna find a doctor who says, “Eat all the ice cream you want! It won’t make you fat!”

    My doctor tells me I can eat all the salt I want. Maybe he could fix you up with an ice cream prescription !!! :thumbsup:

    We just call them caterpillars here, but “woolly worm” is cuter.

    I haven’t seen any this year, come to think of it, even out walking in the woods. What does that mean? :eek:

    I’m like Susan. I’ve seen both colors so far this fall. I hope it turns out to be the winter your woolly worm is predicting, even though the snow would help bring back the water too. Hope everyone has a great day.

    The only wooly worm I have seen this year was smashed on the street. It is late in the month for them to be so scarce. Wonder what that means?

    Okay, I can say I have NEVER seen a woolly worm before. Seriously. It’s kinda cute. *g* Hope you get the winter you want.
    Have an enjoyable day!

    wellll… we saw more woollies than EVER this past summer and fall and we have been having one of the hardest winters in a long long time and YESTERDAY… Feb 2, 2008 I found a woolly worm all curled up for a long winters nap and guess what… he/she was almost ALL BLACK! just had a small narrow band of brown…. so what does THAT mean? I think I already know the answer as our winter is telling the story… oh come all ye robins and blue birds, the cats are getting cabin fever! :purr:
