The Firefly
I have a light organ in my abdomen that contains special chemicals which mix to produce light.
Most firefly lights are yellow, but they can also be green, blue or orange, depending on the species.

The Cricket
My parents named me Chester after the main character in their favorite book, “A Cricket in Times Square”. I make a chirping sound by rubbing my front wings together.
