What's the thingy in that country that swarms along the ground and leaves behind no living thing?
The Red Weed.
Comparison between army ants and driver ants, the driver ants (unlike the army ants) are blind, yet they're the ones that are more dangerous. It's just too easy for something human-sized to get out of the way of the army ants. (Too easy for the drivers too - also called siafas, IIRC - unless you're an infant, infirm or blotto. But there are stories of such happening.) In fact, the army ants are often welcomed into people's houses - it's far better than calling the exterminator.
That giant weta photo is fantastic, the pose is just perfect.
Um, Jilli warning, I guess?
Ugh. Everybody warning!
I clicked but did not wait for the video to load...circle of life and all, but eek.
Can somebody who's actually seen it (Dana? Shrift?) comment on this assessment of the Highlander TV series?
The TV Show is its own animal.
First Two Seasons: Liked them at the time, they do not hold up. Wildly varying degrees of quality.
Third-Fifth Season: A lot more watchable, consistent quality.
Sixth Season: Absolute Train Wreck. NEVER WATCH. Actually this starts with the Fifth Season finale, the episode where the writers went insane.
I'm so proud of myself.
One reason why I'm not a nature program presenter - I would be too sorely tempted to add Benny Hill music once the video speeds up.
Ugh -- thanks, BT! Now I have Benny Hill earworm right before I go to bed.
Hec, that's a pretty fair assesment, although harsh on the earler seasons and gentle on the last. In summary: Methos!
