Between two long trips to Italy in my childhood, the fireflies we could see from the terrace of a small B&B we stayed at in a small village not far from Genoa is one of my most enduring memories.

Yeah, they are amazing. I'm not sure about Liguria, but where I am from (Garda Lake on the Veneto side) they basically disappeared.

As a child in the 80s I was living in a house with a large garden area (fasce) in Genova, just a bit removed from the bulk of the city.
Every summer evening the house and surrounding garden were filled with fireflies, it was mesmerizing.
Thanks for making me remember this :)
