A little late but shoutout to for the fun yard sign (and advocacy for protecting our precious invertebrates).

I’m lazy and hate bagging leaves and I find this a perfect compromise to also conserving all the insects I strive to create habitat for, such as the wriggly live oak metria moth I found in the leaves while raking.
