Day Seventy Three

I have left the the silkworm moths in the care of Mr Honey Pie while I take a short vacation.
This morning, no moths emerged and things seem to be a lot quieter than they have been for some weeks now.
I had the moths in their tank on the undercover verandah, in an attempt to keep the moth-wing dust down inside the house.
Later in the day I spoke to Mr Honey Pie by mobile phone and he told me that a stray moth got eaten up by a tree creeper that swooped down onto the verandah.
Perhaps Mr Honey Pie might have to draw the canvas awnings to keep predators away.
