Walking through Wellington's Central park at night is a spooky but at the same time unique experience. A few minutes in, and you are fully immerse in a dark and dense forest and you'd be surrounded by thousand of bright blue little fairy lights, creating a magical atmosphere. These tiny "fairy lights" are given by glow-worms (Arachnocampa luminosa) which are the larvae of a fly. Māori call them titiwai, meaning lights reflected in water.
