I was wondering if these were like your ones Gail, their stripe is leaning towards a pale blue rather than a white, but could have been caused by the shadow as its was late afternoon when I took these pics..
I was watering the garden and came across them in the Zephyranthes Rain Lilies..
Cute feet :
Plenty on this plant about forty Tony said..
The neighbours Grandson collected them he is really into bugs, caterpillars and spiders.

That looks like my Lily Borers. You've got a lot, I only had about half a dozen on my plant (and only on that one plant) which we pulled of and there isn't any sign of anymore now.
I love that close-up, I didn't realise how cute they looked. It nearly makes me want to keep on as a pet... well sort of 
I think all kids go through an insect-loving stage. Danni is learning about 'Mini Beasts' (aka insects  ) at school this term so is always on the lookout for bugs, etc.
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to use it in a fruit salad.
A ounce of common sense is worth more than a ton of intelligence.

Gail it reminds me of that big caterpillar toy that used to be out many decades ago and it had boots on and you pulled it along on a piece of string.
Young feller visiting next door is only eight and bug mad as I said. I save all my pics like that and them burn them on a Cd for him, Oh he was so happy yesterday as the new Bearded Dragon was in the BIG Chickie yard so he was in his glory having seen one for the first time, as he always seemed to miss out on seeing Spikey.
