About the event

Moth Observation Night @ Lewis Ginter
As the moon and stars come out, so do the moths! Join lepidopterist Clara Aus for a night filled with fun moth activities in the Garden during National Moth Week. Before class begins, she will set up a moth observation sheet and special UV lamps to attract them. After a brief introduction to native Virginia moths with some discussion time, we will head into the woods to start making observations. As moths land on the sheet, we will take photographs and attempt to identify and log each insect for citizen science on iNaturalist. Each participant will receive multiple handouts, we will play a few rounds of Bug Bingo, and one lucky person will win the book “Moths: A Complete Guide to Biology & Behavior” to take home.

Fees: Member $28, Non-Member $34
