FULL: Summer Nights and Fireflies - McKeesport Regional History & Heritage Center

Is there anything more enjoyable than a summer night filled with fireflies? Did you know that some fireflies can synchronize their flashes or that others trick different fireflies and lure them to become an evening snack? Learn about our state insect and its interesting life—and how to count fireflies in your own backyard. We will start with a presentation then observe and count as night falls. Free. Space limited, registration required.
