My wife always says that we, men, talk at least at much about our children as women do, but maybe more!. And indeed, how often do we show to friends, colleagues, etc the photo`s of our loved ones? And, yes, it is now also obvious on diptera.info.
When Bettina van 4 years old she asked me to come to the window and said: "look how the midges are dancing under the trees". I was so proud. Apparantly she has eyes for it.
Last autumn she collected some Carabidae. She told me a few weeks ago she would like to catch flies with a net. The darling is 7 years old.
