Having grown up on the East Coast I remember putting them in the jar to see them light up.
I know better now.. Just watch.. and enjoy.

Oh I remember catching lighting bugs as we called them and filling a jar as a kid too. We also used to pull off there tail and make rings. Nasty little kids that we were. Have a great week. Mona

I love the fireflies! As I swim at night, I feel immersed in a magical world, filled with fireflies.
ReplyDeleteHow did I reach adulthood without experiencing fireflies? They sound so magical - do I need to spend a summer on the East Coast?
ReplyDeleteLove the fireflies! Aren't they amazing!
