Bhorgiri village is
located near Pune-Khed region situated 54km away from Rajgurunagar. The village
is surrounded by mountains. The mountain on the backside of Bhorgiri village
has two caves which are easily visible from the village. Even on fort there is
a temple of “God Koteshwar”. The temple is really beautiful and one can get
superb view of the region from this location and from top of hill you can see
the Bhimashankar Jungle.
How Fireflies Lights?
Fireflies produce light due to a biochemical
reaction that takes place in their body, specifically, their light organ which
is usually in their lower abdomen. Through this reaction, they convert chemical
energy into light energy.
The best part about fireflies is that their light
is a cold light, i.e. unlike a bulb, it doesn’t give off heat. Thus, if a
firefly sat on your palm, you can experience the magic and not feel the sting.
