same with all these 'invasive' insects - they fly and they don't recognise borders or countries - those are human thing, they simply go where they can live and survive - bit like humans did a few thousand years ago With the ongoing changes to the worlds weather more will be doing the same as more areas become viable for them to survive - may as well try to stop rain falling. ( on a possible up side, more food for the beeeaters to stay for ! )
