SUMMARY:Moth Magic After Dark
DESCRIPTION:Step into a nighttime world where moths—those fuzzy\, fluttery\, under-the-radar superheroes—take center stage. Sponsored by Backyard Butterflies\, we will light up the night with special glow stations that gently attract these winged wonders\, giving you a front-row seat to their secret lives. Watch patterns shimmer\, wings sparkle\, and tiny antennae twitch as moths glide in like enchanted creatures from a storybook forest. \nLearn about their hidden superpowers—pollinating flowers in the dark\, feeding nighttime wildlife\, and helping scientists understand the health of our ecosystems. Learn how to be a real citizen scientist by submitting your sightings to iNaturalist to help researchers understand the health of our planet. \n\nNote: Registration is required through the Alamance County Parks website. \nBackyard Butterflies\, a Hillsborough-based nonprofit dedicated to Lepidoptera education and community outreach. \nDate: Saturday August 8th (Rain date August 9th)\nTime: 8:00pm-11:00pm\nLocation: Cane Creek Natural Area – Pine Hill Trailhead\n5075 Bass Mountain Road\nSnow Camp\, NC 27329 \nThe evening starts with a 35-minute moth presentation. Then\, as the night deepens\, we’ll shift into observing these nighttime flyers up close. \nParticipants should bring a chair\, flashlight or headlamp\, wear closed-toe shoes and long pants and apply insect repellent. Sunscreen is also recommended\, as UV lights will be in use. \nMoth Magic is designed to welcome everyone — curious newcomers\, seasoned naturalists\, families\, and children. Costumes are enthusiastically encouraged. Moth wings\, antennae\, sequins\, and full cryptid fantasy are all equally at home alongside hiking boots and headlamps. There is no experience required and no judgment offered — only an open invitation to step into the dark and see what arrives!
