just like those salmon run you see on national geographic
when they run, you gotta be running with them
you snooze, you lose, gotta wait till next year

they always run around that time of the year
because mother nature and creature of habit

The thing about seasonal or annual run of anything is nature helping out the common man. 

I heard of a story from my grandfather about southeast asia being dark for 3 days and 3 nights.  They thought it was the end of the world and that was during the famine of the time.  Store weren't selling anything so people have to forage for food.  He told me about this particular weed with a red stem but green leaf, once boiled, the water will turn red.  It grows at a time of famine to feed the masses.  My family ate that with rice to live. 

I did some background research to such day and the event was a volcano that blew in Indonesia, killing a lot of people.
