Thanks! I used the link and sent my inquiry w a pic—I’ll let you all know what we find out...I did see a few of these earlier this month and was curious about them, but we didn’t have a lot of them…
I found some information on “leaf rollers” or “leaf tier” caterpillars, but didn’t ID the exact ones we had.

You might ask the MDC using this link. I suspect they’ll be able to ID it with your picture and detailed description… let us know if you hear back, I’m curious what they are
