Last night I heard a blackbird sing...spring is coming, and with spring comes an abundance of moths. Mothing is a favourite pastime of mine. This year I have upgraded my gear, and found some new alluring spots to spend nighttime looking for new wonderful critters. It will occasionally be very cold, I will get stung by mosquitoes, bitten by ticks and my back will be killing me for lugging all that gear off the trail. But seeing a badger come closer out of curiosity, having bats swooping low over my head, hearing owls calling, foxes barking, and on top of that, coming home with a memory-card bursting with pictures of beautiful moths.. that just makes me check the forecast twice a day. How soon can I go again.

in reply to Maria Petersen • •@natteheks @jalanchee the alt text goes between the IMG tags. So [img url stuff goes here] alt text[ / img].
I needed to mess with the IMG tags to get it to show up. Hopefully it's still informative.
