At this time of year, I really hate .....

[TheOstrich]

...... the crane flies !!!

Open the door in the evening - six immediately come in - next quarter of an hour spent chasing them round the house ......

Argggghhhhhhhh ......

[meriad]

I don't mind them at all - if anything they give the cats hours of fun and amusement which means I don't have to entertain them (the cats that is)

[Workingman]

It is 23C here, the windows are open, and not a crane fly or moth in sight. Some bats were out as dusk fell, so maybe they have had a feast.

[Diflower]

We've had the lot
They are a nuisance, one nearly fell in our dinner then wouldn't come out of the fridge
And there are bats about, plus very noisy owls
Very warm here too

[JoM]

We've had loads too

[TheOstrich]

I was chasing one round the room during the first part of Downton, but the ruddy thing managed to flop behind the bookcase and never re-appeared.

Maybe we should borrow one of Meriad's cats ....

[Kaz]

We've had a good few as well. They don't bother me or Mick at all but Becky hates them, they give her the creeps - which is really strange as she's quite happy handling tarantulas etc

[saundra]

ho i hate them but havent seen any so far this autumn
to far north

[miasmum]

You can borrow my Mia cat, she loves them. She gets cross though that when you squash them with your paw they won't move again
