Dancing insects
    #14429849 - 05/10/11 01:24 PM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Have you ever walked trough a park or forest with a group of flying insects that are packed together so tightly they cover ur entire path?
Well i did and i noticed how when i walked trough them they all hover around my body not touching me at all. ( At first it scared me and i cycled around the path killing these insects for no good reason )
Then i got to see them up close and i was amazed how all these hundreds of flies are all flying at exactly the same speed leaving exactly the same space between each of them. And me !
They would fly like that and every 2 seconds or so they hovered up and down in perfect synchronicity.
A large group just followed me at my speed and do this dance.
I was pretty amazed by this but i don't see the point of them doing this and i wonder what drives them to go around flying in clusters and following people.

My guess is probably because they are attracted to your body heat.  :shrug:
