Location: Foxton, New Zealand Date: 23:35 December 1st, 2007 One of the joys of early summer in New Zealand is the sound of huhu bugs slamming into windows in pursuit of light. These insects can be 3cms or ore long and their large wings make a loud droning noise as they lumber through the air. Their feet are hooked and getting on entangled in your hair is an "enervating" experience. They are utterly harmless. Their larval form - grubs - are considered a delicacy by some.
