Saturday Morning Moth Club
- Saturday 5 July 2025
- 10-11am
- 74 High Street, Colchester, CO1 1UE
Come and see what Moths we have in the Minories Garden and surrounding area. The trap* will be set the night before and naturalist Chris Gibson will be on hand to identify and release whatever happens to have been using the garden the previous evening. We can also discuss ways to invite Moths into our own gardens.
*Despite the use of the word 'trap' it's completely humane and doesn't harm the moths in anyway if you take care and be sure not to touch their delicate wings.
