Bogong moths: why are you here and when are you leaving? ๐Ÿฆ‹

We asked Dr Caitlyn Forster, and her answer is a good reminder of how much the weather shapes our ecosystems.

Two years of wet weather = a population boom. The swarm should clear in a couple of days to a couple of weeks. You might even miss them when theyโ€™re gone ๐Ÿฅฒ

Until then, go outside and have a look. Theyโ€™re pretty wild up close.
