If your not interested in knowing what ive been up to the past couple of days,then dont read on,because it has ALL TO DO with:thats right,bug catching! Hahahahaha
So yeah,i bought myself this insect net which costs about RM15 for a relatively medium-sized one and i set off to go catch myself some insects for some crummy Bio-project i have to do.
Walked around the tree and shrub-filled areas of my neighbourhood where some of the neighbours were growing their own flowers/vegetables.
To my awe,there were lotsa big-ass bees,dragonflies and of course,butterflies.But catching them wasnt as easy as i thought,them insects fly real fast and it really took alot of patience for me to sneak up to one and catch it with my net.It mustve looked real jakun because people must be wondering what this tall lanky teenage boy is doing catching insects oO
I spent the whole afternoon looking for the chance to catch any of them,fortunately the butterflies are easier to catch than the other two because i guess butterflies are generally slower?
I put all my bugs into this container,how? Wont tell ya =)
My best catch was probably the dragonflies.They zip across the air real fast and it took really good reflexes *ahem* for me to catch them in mid-air.The feeling of hunting them down is really satisfying,the thrill of the hunt~ LOL
And of course,theres the big-ass bees which were probably my most sought after insect because they were BIG.....well not that big,but big.And they gave off a loud BUZZ.These guys were seen spotted around flowers looking for nectar.Catching them was really fun as they really buzzed around you in circles,luckily they dont sting.
Owh,earlier today,i caught alot of butterflies and placed them in my container.Unfortunately,when i placed the big-ass bee in it as well,its wings which tend to BUZZ real-fast sorta shredded the butterflies to pieces =S The gruesomeness of the sight is undescribable,i felt horrible.
Anyway,all my butterflies are dead and ripped into pieces now,i need to catch new ones *If there are any that is* BUG CATCHING IS ACTUALLY FUN! oO
P.S Im gonna post some pics on Facebook soon,go check them out.The problem is,we use a near useless KODAK camera,its totally worthless and it pissed me off countless times because the pics NEVER turn out good.We need to buy a new camera,seriously.
