About This Event
Step into the fascinating world of moths under the night sky at Randall’s Farm! Guided by naturalist Lukas Keras, this immersive program reveals the hidden beauty and ecological importance of moths—often overshadowed by their butterfly relatives. Moths are incredibly diverse, with over 11,000 species in North America alone. They serve as essential nighttime pollinators, a food source for birds and bats, and vital indicators of environmental health. From vibrant patterns to expert camouflage, moths showcase stunning adaptations that make them a wonder to observe.
Lukas will share preserved specimens from his personal collection and set up a light-and-sheet station to attract live moths, offering a rare opportunity to see these elusive insects up close as they emerge after dark.
This family-friendly event is open to all ages and perfect for nature lovers, curious minds, and budding entomologists alike.
What to Bring: Flashlights, wide-brimmed hats, and insect repellent are recommended for your comfort and enjoyment.
Please note, there are no bathroom facilities.
Event is open to the public. Maximum 35 people. RSVP required.
Don’t miss this magical night of exploration and discovery!
