The Moth Ball

Join us for a special kind of ball this September, but don’t worry about bringing your dancing shoes! Once the sun goes down, bugs will be the ones showing off their moves. During this nature walk hosted by both the Town of Lexington Conservation Division and CLC, and with special guest Jace Porter of the Global Entomology Coalition, we will get up close and personal with the nighttime residents of our local conservation areas. We will be using a large sheet illuminated with ultraviolet light to attract all manner of fascinating critters – moths, beetles, flies, spiders, stick insects, or true bugs are just some of the things we might see. Meet at the meadowy picnic table area of Willard’s Woods. Follow the trail westward from the parking lot on North Street opposite 44 North Street.

Registration required, limited to 15 participants – see CLC website for registration link (https://clclex.org/events/)

Rain date: Friday, September 26, 6:30-9:30 PM
