I wish I could claim credit for this incredible picture of fireflies in a North Carolina forest. The true photographer is Spencer Black and this photo was featured today on the http://www.Earthshots.org website.  I borrowed it for two reasons: 1) to demonstrate the magic and wonder of fireflies, and 2) to publicize Earthshots.org.  They feature a picture every day of this beautiful blue orb that we call home.

Fireflies dart about my new home every night.  Sometimes the three of us — me, Tango Dog and Rainbow Cat — will stand on the porch together and watch the flickerings here, there, over there, right here…they seem everywhere.  We collectively gape at the wonder of it all. Thank you Spencer Black for capturing the wonder.☙
