That is just beautiful Wolf !!!
About fifteen years ago a night cricket came into my home an started to chirp. In France, they say that crickets will only chirp in a happy home, there you go, I thought oh we have a happy home after all
So I left that night some lettuce on the floor, and when I came late like eleven pm he was there eating the lettuce leaf, so I put a tiny saucer with water. I would keep seeing him. so I would leave a lettuce leaf each night. After three months, I came late one evening and they were like six crickets, and I felt really happy that I was sheltering his friends. They would all disappear when Iwoudl step into the kitchen but he wouldn't move so we had this sort of night conversation.
After one year it turned out that I had about 25 crickets at night in the kitchen, and my hubby was like, whoa, this is sort of wild country.
After several years, it sort of stayed at 25 to 30 crickets, off and on. My son loved them, he is an artist too. My daughter who is in finance thought I was nuts and this had to stop. Then one day I came in and there was none, and then for a few weeks there was none. Then One night I came in, and there was Frantz, Frantz is the lizard who comes to watch me when I paint. I paint in a corner of a room which is next to the kitchen, and I hadn't seen Frantz for like some weeks. Frantz was a green lizard pretty elegant and quiet and skinny. But when I came into the kitchen that night I was shocked, Frantz had a huge huge belly and had grown like an inch. So this is where you are torn between your love for crickets and your love for Frantz, what can I say, life is complex.
