Feels like I’m seeing more than I have in the past decade this summer, even saw some crickets when I haven’t seen them since I was a kid.

Looks like they might have some molts left so maybe they'll heal. I'm in the blue mountains, idk why not many spiders this year. Normally they're everywhere. Not too many wasps actually but quite a few of the spider hunting ones, so maybe that's the lack. I've seen those wasps take on trapdoors and win!

I've been deboomering this lot of land and it's been rewarding seeing life return as all the poisoned crap and ecologically unsuitable plants are replaced.
