Tussock Moth Variability

There were so many Tussock Moth caterpillars this spring! I'm just getting around to reviewing and documenting my findings.

Here are my photos:

Here are some good references I found:

"The full-grown western tussock moth larva is 1.5 to 2 inches in length, generally gray in color with numerous colored spots, four prominent white tufts of hair on its body, and two black tufts on its head and one on its posterior end."
