Subject: FIREFLY ON FLOWERS OF TERMINALIA CHEBULA : OBSERVATION
To:
Hello,
In today's world of artificial light around us , children are not
familiar with Firefly/Jugnu/Jonaki. I remember Cooch behar of 1972, when
there were hardly any street lights in the town, and during monsoon one
could see fireflies in action. The best firefly display I saw at Pachmarhi
. There used to be synchronized firefly display. I observed that the
display used to be mainly on Terminalia bellirica( bahera ). Those who have
seen this display only know how beautiful the event is.
Other day I wanted to capture images of butterfly on flowers of Terminalia
chebula ( ( HARITAKI/HARRA ) and got some shots of fireflies on the flowers
of the tree. My mind reeled back to the event of Pachmarhi. May be same
type of display is there in the evening on that tree but you can't see it
due to the glare of artificial lights around.
Attaching a collage of Firefly sitting on the flowers of Terminalia
chebula.
Regards,
