Imagining for meteors, got firefies??

[maw lod qan]

Got these in three different 8 sec exposures.

Canon SL1, 18mm 8 sec exp, 5 second delay.

Fireflies are my only guess, though I would like to claim UFO's.?

Yep. Us meteor hunters (and other widefield folk) east of the Rockies (and nearly all tropical regions) have had many exposures “polluted” by these bugs. Late spring seems to be the worst, but just one blinking firefly sure can ruin a long exposure. I’ve noticed that bats absolutely refuse to take fireflies, and will actually turn away from them, so they are no help. I’ve had to sit with my remote shutter release in hand and start new exposures over and over because a lightening bug strafed my position. I’ve ended a few sessions early because the darned things were massed in squadrons.
