    Garden Insect in december

    A garden insect just flew in my window and is not sitting on my computer screen. IN DECEMBER !!! It's 32 degrees outside and it was in the low 20;s last night. This just makes me shake my head and go...HUH ???
    I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.

    Quit setting antifreeze out for things to drink.

    Well, he's now sitting under the light warming himself up.

    He was hiding behind the couch the whole time. A day of warm temps brings them out in droves here, even in Winter. Tiny tree frogs called Spring Peepers, will start chirping (croaking) if the temps get into the 50s even in January and February.

    Could be... I put him (or her) in our "greenhouse room" where we keep plants. It's warm in there, plenty of nice plants to hide in. He should keep well in there until spring.

    Probably not an insect at all. More likely it's a micro-drone sent by the NSA to spy on you. Hide all the porn immediately.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Spring hell. He'll be stoned by morning.

    Flowers blooming trees pollinating the surrounding, yes we have it here too with 12 C, and the next 10 days no change to see.
    Hot dry spring, wet summer, hot dry autum, and warm stormy winter, weird...
