It’s Oddly Spooky

Becky showed us webs filled with carterpillars of ermine moths as an oddity. Yes, there are ermine moths in central Europe as well. Only we call them “Gespinstmotten” here (literally: spinning moths). Which again sounds oddly similar to “Gespenst”, meaning ghost or wraith or spooky.
