(By the way, I grew up in Australia and say fireflies, but I live in Massachusetts, where they’re lightning bugs.)

Interesting! Thanks!

Cute!

That’s what I thought! But this text says that in most of the world glowworms are considered to be the beetle kind. Wiki and the dictionary both agree that a glowworm can include the beetle kind, but I’m requesting the author include commonly known as fireflies or lightning bugs.

Ok, the answers are so far what I expected.

Have you ever heard them called glowworms? If not, what is a glowworm to you?

Research for a book I'm editing. What do you call the kind of insect that flies around on summer evenings and lights up, and where are you from?

😂

It was incredible! I can’t wait to go back.

Glad you enjoyed it! It was spectacular!

Good morning! Another #OceanDevotion video from Iceland today.

I’ve added an Iceland playlist to my channel and will add a few more vids in days to come.

3-min morning Ocean Devotion from Berg Horse Farm, Grundarfjörður, Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Iceland, YouTube video by Ocean Devotion

Good morning! I’m back in Reykjavik after a week in the wilder parts of Iceland and starting to upload some #OceanDevotion videos.

Took this yesterday from the property I stayed on in Grundarfjörður. Stunningly beautiful place!

Good evening! I’m very behind with posting here, but if you’re interested in what I’ve seen in Iceland, take a look on Instagram or Threads, where I am @icebirdstudio.

A few #OceanDevotion videos coming soon.

Four highlights:

10 minutes on Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, Iceland. Peaceful wave sounds. YouTube video by Ocean Devotion

Good evening! I’m currently about 30 minutes west of Höfn, Iceland, but I did this #OceanDevotion this morning from the famous black sand beach, Reynisfjara, near Vík.

Iceland is spectacular.

Good afternoon! I have been away from the coast the last few days, but I had a magical experience that you can enjoy here.

Minimal editing so you can really feel what it was like, apart from the frozen lower face! youtu.be/WZd92GalyB8?...

#OceanDevotion

Ok, here it is!

#OceanDevotion

Good morning! Just recorded my first #OceanDevotion in Iceland, which I’ll upload tonight when I have WiFi.

But what a view!

Good morning from Garður, Iceland!

Adventure time!

Thanks, Ashley! Hope to share some nice videos!

Thanks!!

Thank you!

Also wondering if I should enter the country I'm going to on my Aussie passport rather than my US one... 😅😬😫

If this morning’s sunrise got your attention, US friends, call your representatives.

This cannot go on.

Dramatic beach sunrise, peaceful wave sounds, Outer Cape Cod YouTube video by Ocean Devotion

Good morning!

It was quite a dramatic sunrise, and I filmed for 20 minutes.

I hope you take time to breathe today. We all need it!

#OceanDevotion

Lovely!! (Wish I had a view of the ocean from my studio. Alas, I have to put up with a lake. Poor me 😂)

15 minutes of beach sunrise, peaceful wave sounds, calming nature, Cape Cod National Seashore YouTube video by Ocean Devotion

Good morning!

You get 15 minutes of #OceanDevotion today.

Relax, breathe, think good thoughts.

Sorry that #OceanDevotion has been a bit thin this week. Very busy and not sleeping well at all, so sunrise has been a bit impossible.

Anyway, there are plenty of videos on my YouTube channel to give you the peace & calm you deserve!
