That's funny!

Though, there's something about youth vs. knowledge.

As kids, we'd chase butterflies on the wing across fields in hot weather. I can remember having great headaches, no doubt from dehydration and exertion.

As I aged I became smarter and learned to watch the habits and habitats of particular butterflies. Now, I catch more with far less effort.

You need a facebook login to see this, which a lot of us don't have and don't want.

Agree entirely, especially with the last phrase!

I cannot access the link either.

Maybe we are lucky.

I am not a fan of Facebook too.
I hate the idea being watched all the time but unfortunately all internet platforms, cell calls and texts are being recorded and processed by those they have an interest in it so it doesn’t really matter anymore if you use Facebook or not.

I tried to go around facebook to post the video but can’t find the way. Maybe someone here knows.

Hey Paul,

That's an absolutely precious video !
Reminded me of my youngest days with net in hand.
I was able to view it easily here in Illinois and I do not have nor have I ever had Facebook.

Sorry to hear that not everyone can see it....😔

Actually Trehopr1 is right. When I tried opening it I got a Facebook login, which normally means you can't see the link without complying. Just now I clicked the 'X' top right and was able to watch the video without logging in.
