Firefly - Photuris

Firefly - Photuris
Valley View Hot Springs, near Villa Groove, Saguache County, Colorado, USA
May 26, 2013
Size: 8mm
Found all throughout the beautiful stream sides between the hot springs, flickering green. Valley view is a privet land trust and is the only place I know of in Colorado with fire flies! Great place to watch wildlife from the comfort of hot springs :)
