It was a rainy spring day when I first witnessed the mosquito’s waltz through my open window. It moved lyrically through the air, dodging raindrops perfectly in sync with the music of the Johann Strauss Orchestra that filled my living room. I was in awe of the flexibility and vitality this mosquito displayed. It avoided the raindrops expertly as it danced in ¾ time. At one point a large water droplet smacked it like a boulder, but it glided over its surface and maintained its rhythm. I watched the dancing mosquito, dumbfounded. I knew that to catch mosquitoes I needed to learn their innate sense of rhythm, which means I needed to learn how to waltz.
