My first though was, "ya gott be quick, 'cause those suckers move." When I
was a kid, we used to shoot .22 at camp and when a butterfy passed through
the range, everybody would try for it. Never saw one go down. You'd think
the bullet's wake would be enough to take one out. It was strictly
forbidden and if a counselor thought you'd been shooting at the butterfly,
you'd be out of the range.

Well, we were young and cruel.

Are you using digital or film?

If you go to the Science Friday site (google NPR Science Friday and you will
find it easily, if you're not familiar with it already), the story is
archived and there's a link to an International Herald Tribune article that
was pretty informative. I imagine people are looking at the predator
situation, too.
