NHSM Lep Club: Moths and Creatures of the Night

In partnership with the DNR, join members of the NHSM Lep Club in exploring the Big Falls area of northern Baltimore County.

Beginning at 6:30PM Nick Spero will lead a walk to identify food sources for moths and butterflies. Discover clues to what moths you might see when the sun sets!

As the sun sets, Ranger Jen Cashell and Tim Hoen will set up a mercury vapor light and begin drawing in moths and creatures of the night. Learn which moths emerge early in the evening and which ones prefer later. You can stay as late as 2 a.m.
