Join us at Greenwich Audubon Center for a nighttime adventure to discover one of summer’s most special insects! Fireflies are nature’s own fireworks and their dazzling displays captivate the excitement of people of all ages. Our journey will start with a slide show introduction about the amazing lives of fireflies and how we can help protect them. Then as darkness falls you will have a chance to walk through our meadow and catch a glimpse of their mesmerizing bioluminescence.
