Good article Tom, although not one you want to read while having dinner (ha-ha)!! Still, I’d give anything to be there at Londolozi right now, even with all the flies, and out of the extremely cold winter we are having in Toronto, Canada this year (-30 C)!!

Another out of the box article. Thank you

Need a “flypower” kit, stat. Nelspruit to JNB is becoming too expensive 🙂

Thank you, Tom, for sharing your thoughts and finds about the useful creatures that make our World a better living place. Reading your blog I was hearing Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” in my head.

P.S. I’d like to read a blog on Londolozi spiders and their web building skills (Bark spiders in particular, and orbs spiders, of course) from your talented pen.

I once had so much fun studying dung beetles at Londolozi, so thank you for your study on flies. There are times at the shore in New Jersey where the black flies are just awful, biting and leaving large welts that trickle with blood. There is nothing fun about being out on the water when the “flies are biting” but as you say, they are an essential part of our eco system. Thank you!
