Locusts
I remember in the episode "Bargain Day", when Aunt Bee buys all that meat, it was a hot day and Opie said, "It's going to be another hot one today Pa, hear them locusts". We are in California, and I don't think I have ever seen a locust! Or a stick bug. Silvia, aka Josephine Pike ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Bugs
There were bats in the cave that could got in your hair, not moths. Moths are very annoying though! There was one episode in which Opie asked if he could outside and collect fireflies. Andy was also trying to swat a fly in the courthouse one day. I think Aunt BEE should count!!! --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

Same Old Question
Hi guys, Every few years I put this question out there... just to see if I can find someone that remembers seeing this. When I was a kid... I distinctly remember seeing a Hunting Safety PSA on our local PBS affiliate that featured an animated Andy and Barney out hunting ducks (I remember them being dressed in those winter coats they wore in "Quiet Sam".) Does anyone remember seeing this? "I like that mid-morning cup of coffee... don't you?"

Nice job everybody on naming more kinds of bugs mentioned in Mayberry. I had forgotten about Darlene Mason's discussion about fireflies. That didn't happen in Mayberry but it was mentioned aloud so that's good enough. I had also forgotten Brisco's mentioning a June bug, and the "bugged" cell. Here is an updated list: Aphid Bug Barney feared would get down in his "lair-nix" Bug in cell (The Tape Recorder) Bugs Opie served to birds Centipede Firebug Fireflies Fly June bug Moth Spider I'm still thinking of nine more that haven't been named yet. In case anyone is just joining this discussion, the challenge is to name a kind of bug seen or mentioned in Mayberry. Hints: one is imaginary (and it bites), one is used for bait, and one is seen on the street. Paul Mulik ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Otis was leery of fireflies in one episode because one of them had knocked him down when he had a snootfull. "Doggone firefly -- knocked me right down!" Greg "Brilliant Barrister" Dunagan ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Fireflies
Fireflies were mentioned by Darlene Mason. She put them in a jar when she was growing up back in Kansas. Cheryl Marietta, GA (In Georgia we call them lightening bugs) Sent from Cheryl's iPhone ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
