Moths To a Flame

July 28, 2023, 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Free

Celebrate National Moth Week with a night hike and campfire. Moths make up 90% of the butterfly family, yet most of us can only identify one or two of them. Join a naturalist to discover what makes moths special and why we should celebrate this group of insects. Weโ€™ll set out on a hike with ultraviolet flashlights to share to aid in searching for hidden insects glowing along the trail. Along the way we will check out our โ€œresearch centersโ€ to see if we attracted any winged visitors. End the night with a s’more by a cozy bonfire.
