Yes!! Like Carl Sagan used to say…. “Billions upon billions of…” (no, not stars, in this case) –INSECTS!!
Can you believe it! Billions of insects are flying over our heads — up at altitudes of 3,000, 5,000 even 19,000 feet! They’re migrating, searching for food and mates, looking for new territories.
Here’s a fascinating movie clip by NPR (3 minutes long) that talks about this cool happening. Sorry I couldn’t embed the actual video but click the link and it’ll take you right there. It’s SO cool!
