Swarmed



On the jeepney ride home last night, I looked out the window and saw these everywhere. They infested the sky in giant free floating swarms, it looked just like a movie. I noticed it in Alitagtag, and thought maybe I would see that for a few miles before I hit home. Even at home, there were tons of these things. Happily there were only a few in the house. Our front porch, though is covered in brown wings.

On the way home when the jeepney driver stopped all the ants flew in and we were waving them away from our faces. The driver wanted to drop people off while still moving because this was so annoying, like a horror movie, "go! go!, Step on it!"

I understand that the earth needs ants to survive, but this certainly seems like an imbalance.
