Moth Watch! With Peter Walton
any-ageMoths are on the wing at all times of the year but more so when it’s calm and warmish. Surprisingly they will even fly in the rain. We are able to meet, talk and learn about moths whatever the conditions and it’s unusual not to see at least 1 or 2. On a perfect evening the results can be staggering.
A torch is useful to bring though not essential.
