My wife and I use to take the kids to a campground on the little Qualicum river every summer for years.

Every year in the same week, like clockwork, those June Bugs would start crawling out of the ground. Some people (bug haters) weren't down with them as they were flying everywhere, dropping out of trees and crawling on everything.

The Robins were down with it though. Running around the campground gobbling them up.
