The inside of a bagworm's bag

I've posted before about the interesting biology of bagworms, but wanted to add these beautiful photos of the larger ones seen in Arizona.

    That really does look rather snug, doesn't it?

    Really cool. I've never seen anything but their little heads sticking out of the bags.
