habbitat loss du to many human constructions in the environment ie back yard encrochment. we are killing them off by really wanting a pool iun our uard or addition to our home or even by cutting down trees.

the biggest problem with trying to get them into your neighborhood is that they eat slugs. How many neighbors want slugs ?

I saw something on National Geographic recently about lightning bugs becoming extinct. I am on a mission to fill my neighborhood with them.

[younganimation]

yes there is it has more a yellow tint " no such thing as heat thunder"

[fotoobscura]

He's right, there is no such thing as heat lightning.

From Wikipedia:

Heat lightning is a misnomer for the faint flashes of lightning on the horizon or other clouds from distant thunderstorms that do not have accompanying sounds of thunder.

lightingbugs are cool had them in todd mission texas in the summer and in kennard texas too my friend saw them from the window of his room so kool lookin

[bu11com]

[unitedallstar]

No, not really lol Im from Maryland and we had them ALL the time in the Summer. The last few years i lived there though there wasnt hardly any. I heard that they were becoming extinct......Anyways, i remember my friend used to catch them and write her name on the sidewalks with the glowing part of them.....I would get so mad at her for killing them.

i have tride to catch lightening bugs on video to does not work at all about the best i have seen but when its dark enough for them to show the camera cant focus because its to dark

[SillyReignsSupreme]

Lightning bugs are best viewed in a dark room with clip on full screen view. For every flash you see, there are several dozen you can't - too faint for the camera to pick up. Heat lightning is more dramatic when viewed small screen.

i think it shosw up better on the small screen big one too blurry
