Editor's Note:
Chapter One Bug hunting I remember my first real field trip. I was seven years old. A friend and his father were going on a nature hike, and I was invited! We walked to the end of the road, passed the last house in our village, and followed a narrow path through a wild, brush-covered field. On the leaves of the bushes were hundreds of great big strange-looking insects. They were cicadas. I followed my friend as he followed his father through the tangle of stems and branches until we were surrounded by the giant bugs. We watched them fly from plant to plant, sometimes buzzing right past our ears. We collected a few and put them in a jar. I felt as if I was in some faraway jungle. It was my first truly wild experience.Today I have a grandson who is seven years old. Together we walk the long winding footpaths around the farm, looking for caterpillars, butterflies, dragonflies, grasshoppers, beetles, and spiders, and for a time my grandson and I are lost in wonder.If you cannot let a butterfly flutter by without following it a little ways... If you have ever spent time watching a spider weave its web... If you have trapped a firefly in a jar just to look closely at its mysterious glowing abdomen, before letting it fly again... If you find ants, beetles, caterpillars, and dragonflies mesmerizing...you are a born bug hunter!Anywhere you look outdoors, you are likely to see some bug flying or crawling around. On a bug-hunting field trip, you can choose to look for insects or spiders in a general way. Or you can go out to find and watch a certain species, such as a favorite butterfly.There are bugs to look forindoors, also. Spiders are making webs in skyscraper windows. Houseplants are home to tiny flies, mites, spiders, earwigs, aphids, and ants. Occasionally a ladybug may be discovered climbing a green leaf of a potted plant or scaling window glass. I once found a daddy longlegs in our bathtub!You can catalog the tiny creatures living in your house or classroom. Then go on a field trip and see if you can find the same species living outdoors.Identifying BugsJust how many different kinds of bugs are in the world is unknown. We do know that there are more insects on earth than all other kinds of animals combined. However, even with so many different species, the basic types of bugs are easy to recognize. Generally, bugs can be divided into three main groups — land-dwelling bugs (which, besides a multitude of insects, includes all arachnids), airborne (flying) bugs, and aquatic (water-dwelling) bugs. Knowing this not only helps you identify bugs more easily but also helps you locate the bugs you are looking for.Bug-hunting EquipmentUnlike birds and other wildlife, bugs are not shy. They will crawl or fly all around you. I've done some of my best bug watching while trout fishing, observing close-up mayflies and caddis flies that have alighted on my sleeve or hand.For viewing tiny bugs afield, I carry a pocket magnifying lens. A small aquarium net comes in handy for gently scooping up aquatic insects for a closer look.You can use a small plastic jar to carry home pieces of wings or shed insect skins or even a dead insect you find. A pair of tweezers will help you to pick up such small and often delicate things.These found objects are fascinating to examine closely later at home. With a magnifying lens or a microscope, even the tiniest fly looks monstrous!Using binoculars for watching bugs!On a field trip, a 7 x 35 power binoculars can bring you closer to large insects without you having to chase after them. I often use my binoculars to watch bugs, the same way I watch birds. And using binoculars is the only safe way to get a close look at stinging scorpions or hornets and biting ants.Always stay at least twelve feet from an ant mound unless you are certain the ants are not a biting kind. Stay well away from any tree or bush or hole you suspect to be home to a beehive or hornet nest.TicksWhen I'm bug hunting, I'm always careful about ticks. I stay to the edges of the tall plants and grasses and walk only on the short, mowed grass of a lawn or the well-worn paths in the woods. If you do not rub against a plant a tick happens to be on, chances are the tick will not be able to climb on you.Apply insect repellant to exposed skin and around the cuffs of your pants and sleeves.Wear a hat so ticks that may be on leaves above you will not be able to drop down onto your hair. Be aware of the possible presence of tiny ticks in your yard or garden.If you happen to brush through tall grass or weeds, take a moment to stop and check your clothes for ticks. If you find any, get them off using the tweezers in your bug-hunting gear — or flick them off with a twig — before they can crawl and migrate to your skin.Remember, the tick must come off intact. Never squeeze, crush, or break a tick when removing one. Some ticks carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans.Field Trips. Copyright by Jim Arnosky. ...
