[EBS입트영 5/8] Fireflies / 반딧불이 체험

8 Wed. Fireflies / 반딧불이 체험 

 

Fireflies spend about a year in the water as larvae, before transforming into pupae.

After that, they live as adults for about two weeks.

Despite the long wait for adulthood, their actual lifespan as adults is over in a flash. 

 

Recently, I went on a trip to experience fireflies with my child.

It was a hands-on event where you could see over 30,000 fireflies.

The time we spent gazing at the tiny lights moving in the pitch darkness was very peaceful.

The sparkling lights and the sound of insects buzzing on a summer night became an unforgettable moment for children and grown-ups alike.

 

At the end of the event, we each made a wish as we released newly tranformed adult fireflies into the wild. 

The beautiful light they emitted as they flew away all at once was a sight to behold.
