The Psychology of Flies

"Flies are among the fastest of all flying insects. The buzzing of a fly is the sound of its wings beating. A house fly's wings beat about 200 times a second, and some midges move their wings 1,000 times a second. House flies fly at an average speed of 4 and 1/2 miles (7.2 kilometers) per hour. They can fly even faster for short distances to escape their enemies, which include people and many birds." Quizard

We have a question about animism and a question about anthropomorphism. The former (animism) is belief that all of nature's entities are sentient in the same way

that we are; differering only in various developmental forms as shaped by natural evolution and/or spirit power. The latter (anthropomorphism) is the projection of human characteristics on/into animate (flora and fauna, primarily) and inanimate objects (ie: rocks, the wind, a spring...even human artifacts).
