On june 13 2012 ~ 2Am  about an hour north of Hinton Alberta, I seen what appeared to be luminescent moths.
They would fly into a high watt halogen light then come out glowing like hot embers. Even when they went behind the light tower they glowed.  About the size of a 25 cent coin. This would last about five seconds then it would fade, and they would fly back to the light and come out glowing again. There where moths on the side of the building that where flat white ish with triangular wigs but I don't know if these where the same ones that where glowing. Is there such a things a luminescent moth? What did I see?
