What is FireFly Park at Kampung Kuantan?

Entrances
Firefly Park has a beutiful phenomena where lots of firefly flying nearest to bank river. Firefly, one of the fascinating beetle that abound in Malaysia at one time and is now fast disappearing due to the fast pace of development. Fortunately, there are still fireflies to be seen in Kuala Selangor. That was a Kampung Kuantan.These tiny inserts live on berembang (senneratio caseolaris) trees that grow in the brackish waters.

Beautiful Lights
When night falls, the fireflies will feed on the nectar of the leaves and attract mates with their synchronised flashing green light. The thorax of the insect produces a green grow that flashes at a frequency of 1/3 Hz, or 3 flashes in one second. Each of the berembang tree has different groups of fireflies and each group has flashes that are synchronised. species.

Kg Kuantan Boat Jetty
We need a boat ride along the river to watch this enchanting display.



I will post more info about FireFly Park soon. Keep watch out my blog.

Wahuallam...
