Monday's Riddle: Light in the Dark...

Hello, Riddlers! Can you guess our theme this week? I catch this show from my front porch. When the outdoor symphony chimes in, it's magical! ; ) ~ F

 Fix your eye on firefly; flashing, sparking up the sky. Look below water skim; glowing, jellies sink or swim. Snap a photoprotein swirl, catch a twinkle and twirl. Nature dances for delight when you see with in sight. Biology marks this brilliant feature, built into the form of creature. 

 What am I referring to? Stop by Wednesday for the answer. 

I gave you a clue!

    Phosphorescence caused by certain kinds of algae moving backwards and forwards with the tide?

    Sounds like Bioluminescence, but I could be rusty on my science.

    Fireflies are amazing to watch. They make me think of fairies.

    I think bio-luminescence sounds right, since it includes all those creatures.

    Hmmm. I don't know. But I would guess fireflies. I call them lightning bugs. I love watching them at night in the summer - and chasing them - and catching them in my hand. There is a place in the Smokies where people go just to watch them.

    I'm thinking bioluminescence OR a sea-faring frog watching fireflies in the sky and jellies down below. :)
