Seasonal Happenings - Fireflies

We are very excited about all the amazing things people have been seeing outside! As we all continue to enjoy the outdoors, we want to highlight some exciting things to look forward too and awesome places to checkout. To start, we want to encourage people to check out "Firefly Watch." This is another citizen science that maps where fireflies can be found throughout North America.

Do you want to learn to "speak" firefly and help scientists better understand these amazing bioluminescent insects? Project Firefly Watch is a citizen science project that has been mapping where fireflies flash their lights with the help of citizens throughout North America. You can do this anywhere, even your own backyard.

You can find everything you need at their website, including a chart that tells what kinds of fireflies you have based a pattern they follow when they flash. Check out the link here: https://www.massaudubon.org/g…/citizen-science/firefly-watch
