About the event

Expand your knowledge of our local flora and fauna by exploring a different area of the park each month. Join park staff as they "nerd out" over a different group of animals, plants, fungi or other living things each month. Help collect data for our Biodiversity Project on iNaturalist while increasing your own identification skills.

This month we will be in the park after hours to see some moths and other insects! We will be setting up light traps and moth bait to attract some of our nocturnal friends.

This program takes place outdoors. Please dress for the weather, including sturdy, closed-toed shoes. Participants may request program modifications during the registration process.

Schedule: Jul 25, 2026 Saturday from 8pm to 11pm

Duration: 3 hours

Ages: 10 yrs +,
