Caterpillars in the Cemetery

Two photos of caterpillars on the march, several meters from their birthplace on several bushes in the Gafait cemetery, representing the life cycle of death and birth and our reliance on each other. I don't know where they were marching to; I took the first photo, then returned several hours later to take the second, but lost them several hours later in the camouflage of nature.

Extraordinary - I never knew that caterpillars would travel like that! In the US we have a weather myth that says that it will be a cold, hard winter if the caterpillars are wooly - does Morocco have weather myths also?
