SUMMARY:March 28 - Moth Night at Brumley NP
DESCRIPTION:We’re starting off our expanded series of moth nights in 2026 with an early March date. Attendees are encouraged to visit seasonally to see the “limited time only” moths that have a short flight period during the early spring. These species are seen only this time of year – so don’t miss your chance to meet some new moth friends! \nFor our moth events we recommend wearing proper outdoor attire like for hiking: long pants\, sturdy close-toe shoes\, snug fitting shirts. Dress for safety and warmth\, not necessarily for comfort.  \nBring with you a headlamp or flashlight. Camera is optional\, but encouraged to be part of the citizen science! \nRegistration is required for this event. Click below to register for this event: \nMoth Night

SUMMARY:The Hillsborough Moth Crawl
DESCRIPTION:Summon the Light: Reconvene with the Moths\nSometimes officially described as part citizen science\, part magic\, and all parts pure moth joy\, we’re purely delighted to return for another night of mothy mayhem across Hillsborough. \nWhether you are a curious newcomer or a seasoned moth’er\, young or old\, join us for an evening of visiting multiple mothing locations in a single night\, resulting in the epic achievement of Mothing Your Way Across Hillsborough! \nA year has passed since we last gathered around the collecting sheets. \nIn that time\, something has shifted. It feels a little celestial\, like starlight traveling billions and billions of miles\, reaching us long after it first began its journey. When we look up\, we are seeing the past and the present at once. And in our own way\, that’s what this return feels like too. We are back\, but not the same. We’ve grown. We’ve changed. We’ve undergone metamorphosis. \nWe summon the light\, and the light summons the moths. \nOut of the darkness\, they come\, drawn from hidden places into illumination\, into visibility\, into presence. And we come too\, drawn by curiosity\, wonder\, and something harder to name but easy to feel once you’re standing there\, watching a Luna Moth flutter at the collecting sheet. \nThere is something quietly magical about it. \nHere in the night\, the world softens and expands. The darkness reveals rather than conceals. Another version of reality emerges\, one that asks us to slow down\, to notice\, to be an observer: a citizen scientist. The moths connect us to nature\, to each other\, and to this fleeting moment of shared attention. Their diversity\, endless in form\, color\, and expression\, reflects something back to us\, too. \nThis is a space rooted in inclusion\, where everyone is truly welcome. Where moths\, and the people who love them\, are celebrated! \nThere is love here. There is presence here. \nAnd for one night\, under the glow of gathered light\, we get to experience a world that only reveals itself to those willing to step into the dark and see what arrives! \nRegistration is required. Please visit the event website for more details.
