Moth Night, the annual celebration of moths and moth recording is fast approaching. The theme of Moth Night this year is woodlands, and the event runs over three nights from the 3rd to the 5th July 2014. This provides a great opportunity to target a variety of species including Welsh Clearwing moth, Heart Moth, Great Oak Beauty, Rannoch Looper, Anania funebris, Triangle and Small Black Arches. Of course you are not limited to trapping in woodlands; you can set your own targets or just trap somewhere new. The most important thing is to have fun and use the event to promote the joy of moths and moth recording. Whatever you do for Moth Night this year, please submit all your sightings via the Moth Night website. Please feel free to promote your Moth Night events on the website by submitting the details here.
Moth Night is organised by Atropos and Butterfly Conservation in association with the Biological Record Centre (BRC).
