But at teatime another thing happened. Effie's brother Harry fished something out of his tea, which he thought at first was an earwig. He was just getting ready to drop it on the floor, and end its life in the usual way, when it shook itself in the spoon—spread two wet wings, and flopped onto the tablecloth.

"It is a new specimen," he said, "and finer than yours, Doctor." According to the bolded text, how did the characters react to the creature?
