Something in this discussion jogged my memory.

Thinking about this thread, something caused my brain cells to
fire in synch (for once) and I remembered that Nina posted this
not TOO long ago:

"There is a weevil that eats the TWIGs of Juniper- the
arborvitae weevil.

Jim - congratulations on your information retrieval system! I can
hardly ever get mine to respond like that :/

Colin - I have no personal acquaintance with the arborvitae weevil,
but the ones I have known (before squishing them) had a noticable
snout... beak... nose... probiscus... on their heads. Just wondering,
did yours have such?

Did you put your beetle in a bottle? (perhaps the Ag Extension office
should hire Dr. Seuss to do their advertising)

have planted vines and orchard trees, and in the heat of the day
climbed up into the healing shadow of the woods. Better than any
argument is to rise at dawn and pick dew-wet red berries in a cup."
