Notes
Use the main entrance on the north side of Butterfield Road. Follow the signs to the archery range, and meet in the parking lot. Dress for the weather, wear bug spray, and bring water. Masks are optional.
The program will begin with a brief discussion on the importance of moths and how local ecologists monitor their populations. There will then be a guided hike that will stop at lighting and bait stations, where we can identify moths and add our observations to a community science project.
