The idea of stable ecosystems is childish twaddle, and always has been.
Evolution never stops, not of species, and not of whole ecosystems.
But this does seem pretty quick.
Insect mass extinctions?
Almost 10:30 pm EDT and no outside noises at all.
Not the crickets of fall.
Not the frogs and louder bugs of hot summer.
I still haven't seen a honey bee. And damned few bumble bees. And only one hornet. Or wasp, whichever.
It's almost June.
I haven't seen a single firefly, but they usually show up in numbers in July.
Where are the Mayflies?
Come to that, where are any flies?
We've got ants - carpenter ants - in what appear usual numbers/
No grasshoppers?
