Stunning. Moving. So full of craft and art.

What a life.

All,
I’ve read that many or most of the little clumps of oak branch tips and
other leaf tips now falling in our yards are full of the eggs for Brood X
set to emerge in 2038.
If possible, find areas of your yard that you don’t need to mow and let the
tree branch tips lie there for the summer. et me know.
thanks for the advice. I have done exactly as you suggest. I collected the
leaf clumps on the ground and distributed them behind the front line of our
garden.
Maybe I’ll even be around in 2038 to see them hatch
