Fireflies (lightning bugs) have such a sweet way of lighting summer evenings like delicate lanterns. I look forward to their visit every year, and the magic of their glow appearing suddenly somewhere in the backyard.
Here are a couple of picture showing what they look like when they're not flying. Now if you see them hanging out on (or under) your plants during the day, you'll know they're our magical fireflies, and not a garden pest...and can take care that they're not disturbed or harmed.
Enjoy the light show! They'll soon leave us for another year...
