@Catlynn It's a great chance to pretend you're in the UK. Have you got an umbrella and a glass of warm beer to complete the experience?
@sciencebase I was wondering whether something stimulates them to deposit their eggs so smell seemed most likely if so.

@Adrenochrome I put the temperature of that trunk at 750 - 1000C. Imagine the power and heating rate. Incredible!

Yesterday Russian occupiers have committed an ecocide! The destruction of Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant is a terrible technogenic, ecological and humanitarian catastrophe.
The future of Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is also at question. Water to cool off its reactors comes from Kakhovska water reservoir. #Ukraine
@sciencebase It was little and it had the flashy cream wing tips. There are known to be a few about around here according to Lincs Moths web site, but if it likes Pignut it's out of luck here.
@Liesbeth_Smit I felt sure you were going to add that you only took out one slide. Unless it was a big photo, I guess not!
