Summer<\/strong> is coming and with it an incredible sight, increasingly rare, which makes us become children again: the fireflies<\/strong> that light up the nights<\/strong>, through the meadows and fields of wheat.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

It is a unique<\/strong> and exciting show<\/strong>: in the darkness that surrounds us, the stars appear to be close to us, they\u00a0seem to descend from the sky\u00a0to get on the ground. Lie down on a lawn on a warm June night<\/strong> surrounded by a sea of \u200b\u200bfireflies<\/strong> is something indescribable, we are enveloped in a magical, fairy-tale<\/strong>, almost unreal atmosphere, and instead we are facing one of the most fascinating shows\u00a0of nature.<\/p>\n

If once\u00a0seeing the dance of the fireflies was common, now it is a quite unique event that our children are likely to never see in their lives due to pollution<\/strong> and our lifestyles that have endangered this special species.
\nSo we must arm ourselves with patience, move away from the city and discover the nature that surrounds them, away from crops where\u00a0herbicides and pesticides are used, prefer moist<\/strong>\u00a0places<\/strong> and with a little luck we will find ourselves in front of this poetic show.<\/p>\n
