Had an encounter with about nine of nature's insects on Saturday.
I have a shop in the back yard to do projects in and since it was hot
outside I closed the door behind me and turned on the A/C. Yes A/C
I hate the heat. I had work to do on the bench and cleared it off
(I never put things away when I'm done) in preparation to do my work.
However, there were at least nine flys were franticly bashing
themselves into the window at the back of the bench. I couldn't very well swat
them as I have tools and such hanging around that window that surely
would get knocked down. So as I set about doing my work and two
of these poop walking, eating bugs began landing on me several times.
I was bare-chested and I felt like a landing strip for them. I opened the passage
door and removed my ball cap to swat them hoping to get them to go away.
No such luck they got even more agitated and landing on my head and back.
I stood away from the bench and one landed on my chest, OK
let's go for a walk as soon as I got outside the bug took off. I returned to
start working and another landed on my chest so I repeated the maneuver
but it was spitting rain and my little passenger flew off me back through
the door. As I returned to the bench some flys were still running into the
window but four of them had landed on my unopened Gator Aid bottle.
I moved my hand to pick it up hoping they would stay on the bottle and they
did. Picked it up and stepped outside and without me doing anything
they all flew in different directions. This left three more, one landed on
my head and stayed there as I walked him out the door and it flew away.
The last two must have been watching as shortly they both left by the door.
Just call me "The Fly Whisperer."
