My handyman who lives far from the creek, also has a lot of these, and he notices that they coincide with the hatching of small flying insects. Here I have noticed that there are a lot of insects over the creek, as well as large schools of tiny fish of many different kinds.
Pretty dang interesting down by the creek these days between crawdads and dragonflys.
