i swear it is only coincidence that i am posting this death’s head moth just after the u.s. election. jean-luc just happenend to walk up our stairs with it last night. he had been doing some work on a house in the village, and came across this mummified moth in the corner. and his first thought was STILL blog. how extraordinary is that?
