It brings me unimaginable sadness to know that my recently born nephew will grow up in such a region, when just a few years ago you could see hundreds of these guys in any given back yard

I lived most of my life in areas where fireflies were around, but they weren't the bioluminescent type,

The house I moved to about 5 years ago is in the woods and 3 months out of the year these guys buzz around my front yard and I've even helped a few out of the house.

They never fail to bring a smile to my face.
