Buil details upon request, I still need to find some black tubing to finish his guns.

Another night, another place, another spectacular show.
Fireflies really are my favorite subject from now on.

Fairey Firefly of the Fleet air arm.This reconnaissance fighter,despite only entering the war in July 1944 was perhaps the most successful British wartime shipboard aeroplane.
Lucky us! The first fireflies of the year were flashing in the trees last night. Looking down, I found a larva crawling in our driveway.
A.K.A. Lightning Bug.
This is likely Photinus pyralis.

Reworked this panorama and was able to layer in the 50 photos I took to get all the fireflies across exposures showing up.
Zoom in. It's worth it.
This firefly appears to be circling the Big Dipper. Note the pan points to the north star which is at the end of the handle of the Little Dipper. Note this is a 35 second time lapse shot and there is probably just the one firefly.
The Firefly Drive lights up by pressing a button on top. It uses the yellow LEGO light brick from 5764 Rescue Robot. Also, that brick is absolutely BURIED in the middle of that engine, so here's hoping it doesn't burn out any time soon.

We were photographing the D. H. Day barns at Sleeping Bear Dunes Lakeshore, when I noticed the fireflies.
When I went to visit my Grandmother in Battle Creek, they get a lot of Fireflies up there. Here is one that I caught.
A tiny little beetle, I caught it the previous night and after a photo released the next morning. I'm not sure of exact species but it looks very primitive.
The Firefly served as a carrier-borne reconnaissance fighter in both World War II and the Korean War. Fairey Aviation (Britain) Company's original prototype first flew in 1941 and, two years later, the aircraft became operational with the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm. In total, 1623 Fireflies left the assembly lines. One of the aeroplane's most interesting features is the housing of the pilot and navigator/weapons officer in separate compartments. In addition, the innovative wing flaps, when extended, increased both the wing area and, in turn, their lift. This last feature made the heavy Firefly docile during landings on aircraft carrier decks.
The Royal Canadian Navy employed 65 Fireflies of the Mk AS5 variety on board its own aircraft carriers between 1946 and 1954. The letters 'AS' stand for anti-submarine, which was the intended primary role of the RCN's Fireflies.
The Museum's Mk 6 was the first aeroplane type acquired for CWH's collection, which explains why the Firefly is pictured on the CWH decals and letterhead (although this is not the original aircraft). The Camden Air Museum (Australia) provided the Museum with this Firefly, which has been restored in the colours and markings of 825 (RCN) Squadron, which flew Mk 5's from the aircraft carrier HMCS 'Magnificent,' circa 1953.
