How do you see a firefly as i live near a field but i haven't seen any?

Just because you live near a field doesn't mean there are any fireflies in it. Fireflies are not distributed evenly all over the world and they need a particular type of environment to live. In the United States, most fireflies are in the eastern half of the country. A Smithsonian web page notes that fireflies in the western U.S. lack the ability to produce light. Different species of fireflies can have different months of activity. You could live in an area where they are not active yet, or there may be none around you, or they don't glow.
