Every year we look forward to a short 2-4 weeks in the late spring to experience the amazing blue ghost fireflies. This year, not only did I get to take Gabrielle with me, but also our good friends and fellow explorers, Jody Wilbanks and Michelle Owens. Join Gabrielle, Jody, Michelle, and myself for a late night in the forests of DuPont State Forest as we delve into the darkness to experience these amazing fairies of the forests and share our thoughts on this magical couple of nights!
