Moth Night

Moth Night

Monte Bello Preserve Parking LotLos Altos, CA
Overview

Midpen guided activities are led by trained volunteer docent naturalists. All are welcome.

Come celebrate National Moth Week, scheduled for July 18-26, and see for yourself that moths are much more than little brown things that eat your clothing! Docent Naturalists Debbi Brusco, Jack Owicki, Vivian Neou, Ray Curiel, and Annette Herz will use special lights to attract the moths to sheets so you can observe how beautiful and interesting these winged creatures are. You'll also have the opportunity to be a community scientist by photographing and submitting your observations to iNaturalist. Bring snacks, a flashlight, and your camera or phone. This easy, observational activity is well suited if you need a less physically challenging outing. (Notes: This activity takes place at the parking lot but wear close-toed, sturdy shoes/boots; you’ll have the option to leave earlier than the scheduled end time.) Reservations are required and will be accepted on or after July 5 at 12:00 p.m. (noon) and close July 17 at 2 p.m.
