When I was a kid, I remember seeing clouds of them in the school field when we went out to play. There used to be so many that they would cover your windshield. For the last few years I have hardly seen any around. Today, I only saw a single solitary bug lazily flying through the air.
I suspect the rapidly changing climate is the cause but, I guess I feel a bit of shock at realizing and reflecting on the fact that this is happening right at home.
Thank you. I appreciate your sympathy.
Honestly, seeing that solitary Lovebug today made me immediately think of that popular animated video on the last Kauai O’o calling out in vain. I was wondering if we have reached that moment yet but, with a species of insect in this case.
