Noctuid, Geometer, Sphinx ….moths always amaze. From the time of the Ancient Egyptians to today’s NPR storytellers, moths have held us spellbound with their style, colors, habits, and mysterious ways.
As part of National Moth Week, we will explore moths up close and share the data and photos we collect with researchers.
If you are interested in insects, butterflies, moths, or the wildlife of Cambridge, or if you like nature or nighttime, this event is for you. Photographers interested in creative moth portraits are especially encouraged to attend.
No previous mothing experience is required! Bring your picnic and carry out and recycle your trash. The moths will thank you!
