- Description
- <p>Let’s light up your life and butt. World-renowned firefly expert Dr. Sara Lewis of Tufts University gives us some updates to her 2021 episode, sharing her love of a bug that many think is merely mythological. Learn how these tiny animals illuminate the night, the dos and don’ts of firefly observation, how to take good firefly photos, femme fatales, pink glowworms, secret languages, artificial lights, what’s up with their population numbers, why Western states can chill out with their lightning bug envy, and how you can ensure the world stays aglow with these beloved bugs. Also: nuptial gifts, both human and lampyridological.</p><p>Visit Dr. Sara Lewis’s <a href="http://silentsparks.com/" target="_blank">website</a> and follow her on <a href="https://www.threads.net/@silentsparks" target="_blank">Threads</a></p><p>Buy her book, <a href="https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691162683/silent-sparks" target="_blank">Silent Sparks: The Wondrous World of Fireflies</a>!</p><p>A donation went to <a href="https://fireflyersinternational.net/donate" target="_blank">Fireflyers International</a></p><p><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/crotalology">More episode sources and links</a></p><p><a href="https://pod.link/1746567248">Smologies (short, classroom-safe) episodes</a></p><p>Other episodes you may enjoy: <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/entomology">Entomology (INSECTS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/acaropathology">Acaropathology (TICKS & LYME DISEASE)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/forestentomology">Forest Entomology (CREEPY CRAWLIES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/odonatology">Odonatology (DRAGONFLIES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/indigenousmelittology">Native Melittology (INDIGENOUS BEES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/lepidopterology">Lepidopterology (BUTTERFLIES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/cicadology">Cicadology (CICADAS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/dipterology">Dipterology (FLIES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/behavioralecology">Behavioral Ecology (REPRODUCTIVE TRADEOFFS)</a></p><p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-sponsors">Sponsors of Ologies</a></p><p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-extras">Transcripts and bleeped episodes</a></p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/ologies" target="_blank">Become a patron of Ologies</a> for as little as a buck a month</p><p><a href="https://ologiesmerch.com/" target="_blank">OlogiesMerch.com</a> has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes, more!</p><p>Follow Ologies on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ologies" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ologies.bsky.social" target="_blank">Bluesky</a></p><p>Follow Alie Ward on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alieward" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@alie_ologies" target="_blank">TikTok</a></p><p>Sound editing by <a href="http://jarrettsleeper.com/" target="_blank">Jarrett Sleeper</a> of MindJam Media, <a href="http://www.stevenraymorris.com/" target="_blank">Steven Ray Morris</a>, Mercedes Maitland of <a href="http://maitlandaudio.com/" target="_blank">Maitland Audio Productions</a> and <a href="https://www.jecmusic.com/" target="_blank">Jake Chaffee</a></p><p>Managing Director: Susan Hale</p><p>Scheduling Producer: Noel Dilworth</p><p>Transcripts by Aveline Malek </p><p>Website by <a href="https://www.kellyrdwyer.com/photo" target="_blank">Kelly R.
