We have them fly over our home. Closer, because they are coming down from going over our Mapleton mountain and on their way to land in Salt Lake City, just an hr. from us. Love those clouds!

We are directly in the DFW & Dallas Love Field flight paths. That one was “just passing through” headed SW (mostly). It was a surprise to catch one of them given everyone else is either on approach or departing… and significantly lower. The perspective of the clouds size to the “known size” of said jet was the reason for the zoom out.

And we normally have great sunsets and rising here in this hill.

If you saw this in on a bush or a tree, would you know that it was living? Meet the "Bagworm Caterpillar". It collects and saws little sticks to construct elaborate spiral log cabins to live in. These small creatures begin as moths. Once they hatch they immediately begin constructing elaborate shields for themselves for protection, often times looking like log cabins. They build their homes out of silk, sand, soil, and plant materials. If you look very closely, you can see the strands that it used to tie the structure together. Bagworm moths make their homes in many types of trees, especially cedar trees. Larvae crawl to nearby plants and their bags can be seen hanging on trees that they feed on. Some may spin a silk thread that catches the wind and carries them off to new trees.View attachment 2807591

The cloud in the last picture is an extremely weird shape.
