At least once a month this spring, summer and into fall I’l be offering Marvelous Moth programs in my Enchanted Forest in western NC. Like the Blue Ghost Firefly Tours, they’ll take place at my forested property in Arden and will be open to anyone who wants to join.
Each night after “meeting” (through photography) some of the moths that share our forest, we’ll go out to several different “mothing stations” that I have set up in the yard. These consist of a white sheet with a bring light directed onto it. All kinds of moths and other interesting insects show up at the lights, allowing us to view them up close. Some are downright amazing! You’ll be shocked how many are beautiful colors, just like they’re more popular cousins– the butterflies.
Here are some moths you may see!
Like my firefly programs, you can sign up here. It’s only $10 a person and it’ll be a unique and educational way to spend a few hours. I hope you’ll join me!!
