lightning bugs...



Or fireflies? I grew up in Kansas. There we called them Lightning Bugs. Whatever you call them, we’ve had them in abundance down here in northwest Arkansas.

My grandson has been visiting this past week. Every evening he grabs the jar with the holes in the lid and catches as many as he can. We are strictly “catch and release” so after he gets about 10 or so, the lid comes off the jar and he starts all over again. Probably catching the same 10 that he just let go!!
