   Phoebe looks as though she has grown a little in the last panel since the start of the strip. LIKE.

   Fun Fact: The glow of the fireflies is a mating signal which occurs during the evening and early night.

   They occasionally make inroads into western states, but never seem to get past the Rockies.

   In Kansas, fireflies vary from year to year. So summers they’re everywhere. Next year, virtually nonexistent.

   Two weeks ago, I was surprised to see fireflies in downtown Pittsburgh.

   I remember fireflys from my childhood in Maryland. They are drab looking insects but they make a summer night pure magic. A lantern glowing in your cupped hands. The last sparks of a campfire. The glow sticks that are so fun and useful are their gift to those who might not get to see them fly around.

    I’ve seen some videos of frogs that eat fireflies, then the frogs’ bellies flash in Morse Code.. Amusing.

    She’s lucky to have you, Marigold (but I’m sure they both already know that.)

    I love it when my nieces come to visit my parents in NC. They don’t have fireflies where they live. The first day they arrive, they’ve got their jars set up. It’s absolutely magical to see the girls chase the fireflies.

    Fireflies are the closest thing DC has to fantasy creatures. Outside of the government, of course.

    I had no idea that fireflies are not found in the western US. How distressing!

    Say, did you know that the old song, “Shine, little glow-worm” is from a German operetta based on “Lysistrata”?
