Have you ever seen little glowing lights in the night sky? ✨ Those are fireflies, also known as lightning bugs! These incredible insects can produce their own light through a special process called bioluminescence. But did you know fireflies don’t just glow for fun? They use their blinking lights to send secret messages to other fireflies!br br Some fireflies put on an amazing synchronized light show, blinking together in perfect unison. Even baby fireflies, called larvae, can glow, warning predators that they taste bad. Fireflies are also night-time insects, hiding in grass, trees, and leaves during the day.br br Sadly, too much city light pollution is making it harder for fireflies to find each other.
