Few weeks ago we were walking in the mountains, fifteen minutes from the city, we had a good time although the weather was cold and wet, the place is very nice, when we were returning we saw a small green lightning point on the ground moving, we thought that it was a firefly, but when we looked at it more closely it turned out to be a worm that has this kind of flashlight on its head, I thought it could be a firefly larva, but they have the light on their tail, so we named it 'the miner worm' and we recorded it for a couple of minutes, it's the first time I see a worm like this.
