Firefly Squid glow with electric blue light as they wash up on a moonlit beach in Toyama Bay, Japan. Though the female Firefly Squid dies shortly after spawning, only on those nights when there is a new moon and it is dark do these creatures venture into very shallow water. Caught by surface currents, many of these squid and wash on to the dark, volcanic, sandy beaches of Toyama Bay. The blue light is from photo cells on the squid's tentacles, which glow with luminescence before they die.
