This week, we’re discussing an insect that often raises feelings of summer nostalgia. You probably have memories of chasing them at night, anticipating their bright yellow/green flicker of light. They can create some fantastic spectacles because of their bioluminescence, and they’re also crucial to the ecosystems they’re a part of. So, take a look outside tonight because we’re talking about fireflies.
