I just wanted to let you all know about some of the really fun evening/night events next week to document as many different moths as possible in DFW.  There are three events going on.

Midlothian, Mockingbird Nature Park – July 27, Wednesday, 8:00 PM

I’ll be at all three!  I hope to see some of y’all there too.  The end times of these events will likely vary… We’ll stay out as long as we can, I betcha!  Let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Also, to prep for the event, I’ve been sorta working on a little guide of the moths of DFW.  On iNat, there is a limit of 500 species per guide, and so far, there have been 430 observed!

Be sure to photograph some moths next week and put them online — either iNat, bugguide, Moth Photography Group, or wherever.  Moths!

Feel free to share with your nature-loving friends too.  🙂
