[Taxacom] bug cameras

[John Grehan]

This is not about taxonomy precisely, so apologies in advance. Was
interested to see an article on miniature cameras mounted on insects to
study their movements -

The camera is still relatively large, but if it were a bit smaller and
affordable I could see it being useful to me in tracking ghost moth mating
behavior. I have studied forest species where the moths fly up into the
forest canopy after dark so there is no way at present to know where and
how moths get together. Some sort of camera mounted on the moths might
solve that.
