No shortage of lightning bugs here either. The only thing killing them is the spiders.

You should definitely film that. I bet there are thousands of people that would watch a "firefly vs spider" death match on youtube.

So far I've only discovered the aftermath, drained husks hanging in a web. If I can catch a spider in the act though that would be great and I'd definitely film it.
