Comment on Lightning bugs
NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 7 months agoI’ve never seen one, though a quick online search shows that some species of firefly do exist in my small country. I guess I’ve just never been out in the right kind of nature at night.
I’ve seen them hundreds of times in movies and TV shows though, they’re real common in American media.

the ones in american media tend to fly while glowing, no? i’ve only ever seen the quietly sit on a leaf and flash in patterns type.

American fireflies mostly glow while they are flying. The best way to catch one is to snatch it out of the air when it lights up.

i guess there was no money for the special-effects firefly in europe…
