A summer day, great to have a stroll on the beach, a walk in the park, having an ice cream, a hike on the hills, but not a flight. Too windy today, western winds.
Foto's this time, not so nice and inviting. Foto's from procession caterpillars, on our pine trees. Last few years we have had an invasion of those procession caterpillars on our pine trees, and each year we see more and more nests on them. With result, pine trees completely destroyed on our hills. A very sad view.
But even more, these caterpillars are very harmfull and even poisonous. Little kids in hospitals, dogs die from it. It is their little hairs that get in touch with your skin, causing severe itches, resulting in wounds like little burns. It is horrible. These caterpillars walk out of their nest, on the ground, back up to their nest. Everywhere they have been they have left their poison. So if you even touch a branch where they have been on before, you're stung.
This year the amount of caterpillars around have been devastating. Horrible things, so do not ever land near a pine tree in Spain.
