Professor Shih Yeng-Fong 石燕鳳 of Chau-Yang University was kind to invite me to join a field trip of her research group on April 18, 2009. In the evening at the Lu-Ku village of the Nan-Tou County, we saw million of fire flies. It was magnificent. The bottom photo shows Professor Shih (the person on the right) and her graduate students at Chau-Yang University.
By the way, where is Lu-Ku 鹿谷 ? It is east of Ju-San竹山, and southwest of Pu-Li 埔里. The name Lu-Ku, literally translated as 'deer canyon'. Sika deer, or the plum-flower-deer 梅花鹿 as Taiwanese call it, used to be abundant in Taiwan. Sika deer is now extinct and completely disappears in Taiwan.
