I saw two fireflies in my house.
The girl is looking for a mate
The Highlands of Tlaxcala, México🌧️🌾🌌🐝🌲🌲🌲
we got some simps in the comments
Random off topic:
The place is Tlaxcala, Mexico. I just finished watching Age Of Empires 2 Walkthroughs regarding the Montezuma campaign.
Wow… this looks so magical I can’t even-
The most romantic fly of all
In my country, when I was children my mom say fireflies = the nails of ghost 👻
I thought that the children would not catch fireflies
This is probably a stupid question but are firefly the same as lightning bugs?
So spectacular
wowwww 🙂
Wriggle Nightbug !
Dear National Geographic, may I ask who composed the beautiful music? (around minute 2 ff.)

Why is she holding that lantern in front of her face while trying to see bioluminescent signals?
Absolutely beautiful, gorgeous, stunning…

The fireflies aren't bad either 😉
cool
❤️❤️❤️💕💕👍👍🇲🇾🇲🇾💞💞💎💎💎🙏🙏 the best wishes we need to followup with natural resources
I just L O V E this video. Love it, adore it, cherish it…I could watch it all day long. The music, the fireflies, the narration…it's just perfect. A really great job. I love fireflies and I often go and watch them in the summer nights. But here, they're not in such a frenzy, neither are they the synchronizing species…but they're still beautiful.
Wow those fire flies are PRETTY 🤩
y pensar que yo vivo ahí. 💕🤤
muitobom
I’ve never actually seen a live firefly before- still hoping to one day
His voice!!
Remind me never to watch any video by Blake Congdon again, that was terrible. If you want nature shows, NG is almost as bad as Discovery it seems.
fake
Im a fan of their existence, though i never see one in real life, not yet.
Please wait for me, until then fight for your existence. Your life may be short but your living it with so much worth 💛
I wonder if they like LED lanterns.
Fireflies mating ritual. Tbf if I was in the forest and saw that Mexican beauty with her lantern I'd be in mating frenzy mode too!
Imagine doing psycadelics there
Parese en sueño. Ese lugar queda en tlaxcala
…fireflies only please, no scantily clad supermodel necessary…
Haven't seen one since childhood until tonight a few mins ago. I'm still in tears….We humans have annihilated so many beautiful and innocent species from the world……..
Gorgeousness✨
