Firefly - an unique insect which can produce light in darkness. We drove all the way from Penang Island and gather around Nibong Tebal fishing jetty. We boarded a sampan, which is just fit for 20 of us....The light display by the fireflies on the mangrove trees along the river was fascinating. Some will ask, why the fireflies produce light? This picture will tell you why... they are MATING. So don't disturb them with your flash light!!
