br clear=3D"none">&nbsp; 31 May 2011 - 1blinking flyby<br clear=3D"n I see a few (very few) on warm nights. Open space hemmed in by trees, ground level to a few metres up. It's a few years since we saw them reliably in some numbers. There could be lots of fireflies around of the non-blinking types, but I'm not familiar enough with them to ID.
