Catching fireflies

Stud boy recently caught his first fireflies. Andrea & I took him outside one evening, fought the mosquitoes and snagged a few lightning bugs. We had to work on his grabbing technique but no fireflies were harmed in the process. The fireflies spent the evening in a mason jar on stud boy’s night stand. He told us that he was going to keep his eyes open all night to watch them glow. Fortunately we wore him out at the park and he didn’t stay conscious for very long.
Here are a few pics of the action.
