Watching fireflies is a special part of warm summer nights in New England. We watch, we enjoy, but do we really know what they are saying? This talk by Don Salvatore, a longtime science educator at the Museum of Science in Boston and a co-founder of the Firefly Watch Citizen Science project, will shed a little light on the secret lives of fireflies. You will also learn how you can participate in a scientific research effort to find out if these magical insects are disappearing from our landscape and, if so, why and what can be done about it.
