Sky Fishing for Moths

JUL 27 2024 8:30 PM

Osborne Park , Clayton County


Event Summary

National Moth Week this year goes from July 20th-28th when moths are most active. Join seasonal naturalist Nick Schaefers to round out the week with a night of “sky fishing” for moths and other nocturnal insects!

Sky fishing involves shining a bright light onto a sheet which attracts many nocturnal insects. During this event, we hope to find over a hundred different species of insects, or more depending on luck.

Participants are welcome to stop by the nature center any time from 8:30 to 11:00 pm and may stay as long or short as they wish.
