The moth tree and the path toward Cedar Hill

The Moth Tree

Three Armyworm Moths feeding on the diminishing sap of the Moth Tree
Alas, the Moth Tree is drying up. No Underwing Moths at all. But at least we have Cicadas. And soon...slug sex. Also, we'll be experimenting with new locations for the black light in hope of finding some new moths.
