the most intricate design on a moth I have come across. Always a spectacular find. It can usually be found in some woods near my house in the rainy season. Brahmidia hearseyi #moths #insects #nature #naturePhotography

@neil hey, some of us like the puns in our timeline. At most, use a hashtag, but don't stop posting things that you enjoy.

Teach me something useful about a subject you know very well.
Doesn't have to be a detailed lesson, in fact ideally just a few words or a single post.

I follow both #infosec and #woodworking related hashtags, so when someone excitedly posts that they've upgraded their router it's always a bit of a guessing game until I get to the hashtags at the bottom.
