User's notes
Incredible numbers and activity of the moths, all along this stretch of road, with hundreds flying about close to the ground, sometimes landing, but moving quickly, some flying down to the creek, and flying over the surface, I could not tell if they were drinking. Very difficult to photograph as they did not stay still.
