Have you seen any fireflies lately?
Has it been awhile since you saw a firefly or lightning bug? FireFlyers International Network (FIN) celebrated World Firefly Day 2020 during the July 4 weekend. FIN’s theme was “Hope rising” for the online celebration (Youtube channel and the FIN Facebook group) given health concerns amid the pandemic. FIN is an international group of firefly scientists, conservationists, and enthusiasts.
