Ugh, tis the season....




For lake flies. Here are a few pictures of the mass of flies surrounding our house & garage. They come every year in May and there are so many that you can actually hear them buzzing.




When you walk to your car you have to keep your mouth closed & if you dare mow your lawn you need to wear a bug net! Then when they are done you literally sweep/shovel them up.




The photos are from yesterday - they've doubled overnight....they only live for 24 hours on average.....good eating for the birds & spiders, which we will have an abundance of soon too....
