Tussock Moths

[Oak]

I spoke with the Boulder County open space gal yesterday.  She said lots of people have asked her about the moth, and that they’re natural to our forest, they are always around, but this is a particularly good year for them. And though those trees in the canyon look terrifyingly dead, they’re not and they will come back. (!?!) And if next year isn’t a bad year, it will all be OK, at least until the apocalypse takes us all out.
