FIREFLIES: NATURE’S LIGHT SHOW

The draw of a blinking bug butt is undeniable. How do they blink and why? Do they have to change their light bulbs as often as we do? Learn how a firefly glows and how you can tell the difference between species on this interactive hike. We will also try to catch and release the lightning bugs we see! Registration required by Tuesday, July 21: 708-946-2216. https://anc.apm.activecommunities.com/fpdwc/activity/search/detail/10119?onlineSiteId=0&from_original_cui=true
