Bioluminescence

That's a big word...

Western Kansas is pretty hot and humid in the summer, but we found a nice state park and camped next to a lake. You know what we saw? Fireflies! I had never seen them before. We don't have them in California so it was really cool. I think they're my second favorite small creature after the Salt Creek pupfish in Death Valley.

I noticed that some people from the Midwest call them "lightning bugs."
