Every year at the end of the dry season when we finally get a bit of rain there is this freaky phenomenon of swarms of winged termites crawling up out of the ground and filling the air. If it happens at night they make clouds around lights. But they showed up a few weeks ago in the middle of the day. It's hard to get a good picture, but all of those white spots are flying termites! The chickens were pretty excited about this and ran jumping around trying to catch them. After a while it would be easier for the chickens because eventually the termites fall to the ground. That's when kids collect them and fry them up to have a special treat. I think I'll pass on that delicacy!
