Fireflies contain the so-called Luciferin, and combined with oxygen enable them to produce light. It is thought that light in adult beetles was originally used for similar warning purposes, but evolved for use in mate selection (from interestingtopics.net). My second attempt at making a wallpaper (hope you like it)

Fireflies, are one of my very favorite kinds of insects!!!
I was always puzzled when I was a child. We were supposed to have fireflies in our area of Michigan, but we Never saw any. When we went to the state of Ohio to visit my grandparents, they always had them. We loved to catch them. Usually we let them go but sometimes we took them to our home in Michigan (about a 7 hour drive) and we let them go in our yard in the hopes that they would start living in our neighborhood. But it never worked.
Happily though, we have had Fireflies in our area during the past 10 years. We found out that the fireflies had returned to Michigan when farmers stopped using DDT, an insecticide. f + 10000
