Fireflies

Yesterday we went to see fireflies in Tsukuba. I tried to take a video but it didn't come out clearly - here you can only see one firefly, but in fact there were many.

In the video you can also hear many amagaeru frogs - they were so noisy! And we could also hear an ushigaeru which is a kind of bullfrog.

It is really important that we don't use agricultural chemicals and try to keep the small rivers in Tsukuba clean because fireflies only live in clear water. I hope that in a few years there are more places in Tsukuba we can enjoy watching them.
