Greenroome 0 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 The Yuki mushi are out in numbers again today. So beautiful. They just drift around like pieces of ash. Not all of them have a white fluffy back though. Two different species? Or stages of development? Any entomologists out there? Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 What do those dudes look like? Not seen many insects round here this year actually, not as many dragonflys as usual. Link to post Share on other sites
Greenroome 0 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Not meant to post links here, but if you do a search on Yuki Mushi, there are some blog sites with pics. We had eight thousand gazillion dragon flies about a month ago in Sapporo this year. It was quite incredible. I live only 100 metres from a mountain though, so I might see more than others.
