Thanks for the information. I can always tell them apart in the winter by the smooth slivery branches. The buckeye can be eaten if boiled and leached similar process to an acorn. The buckeye name is not from the skin covering the nut, but rather from the buckeye itself which has it's own "eye". I forage these each year in the Auburn area and create pancakes with them.
At 2:04, the moths we can see on the flowers are ctenucha (te-NEW-ku) moths, either Ctenucha brunnea (south-central Calif and south) or Ctenucha rubroscapus/multifaria complex (central Calif and north)
