Tent Caterpiller Siting in Seattle

Usually I see the tents much earlier in the season, but then again a lot of things usually happen earlier in the season than has happened this year. Today I saw my first tent caterpiller tent. They were engulfing tiny apples on a nearby apple espalier. Hmmm…I don’t think I’ve seen them tent around actual fruit in the past. And, the tent wasn’t large. I wonder if they’ve suffered as much as the rest of us in this long, cold spring?

Any other sitings around here? Bueller?
