SUMMARY:Village Nature Series | Illuminating the Fabulous Worlds of Fireflies at The Village Green
DESCRIPTION:Fireflies are known for their magnificent flashes that fill our summer nights with magic. How do they glow\, and are there any that don’t glow? How do they help with medical research? What special kinds can we find in our own backyards? The world of fireflies is full of trickery\, romance\, and awe\, so join us as we illuminate the mysteries of these amazing insects!   \nPresenter Bio: Sara Rivera (she/they) is a former Insect Curator for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and a graduate student in the Biology department of WCU. Their thesis research focuses on the evolution of tropical\, predatory fireflies. In her free time\, Sara also does science outreach with her own organization\, THEM in STEM\, which focuses on making science accessible and entertaining through local Firefly Walks\, Science Storytimes\, and endlessly entertaining public talks!
