I live in a dorm in upstate NY, and as fall settles on us (with temperatures around 50 degrees) we've noticed something pretty strange in our rooms. There are a lot of house flies, but mostly they're just sitting on the window not moving. If you brush one off they frequently just flip over and sit there, or sometimes they can barely get off their backs at all. When we do hear one it's trying to fly near the bottom of the window barely getting 4 inches off the ground...

It's pretty eerie. Has anyone seen this happen before? Why are our flies such little wimps? (On that note, I lived in the same part of the building last year and never saw them, let alone like this)

Thanks,
John
