Join us for an after-hours experience searching for the remarkable creatures that emerges after dark in Louisiana’s wetlands and woodlands. Using specialized lighting, we’ll observe moths, beetles, and other nocturnal species up close.This immersive program offers a relaxed, engaging look at the biodiversity that thrives in the southern night. There will be moth sheets set up and naturalists on site to guide attendees at their own pace.
A moth sheet is a simple setup used to observe moths and other nocturnal insects. It involves hanging a white sheet and shining a bright light on it, which attracts the insects, providing a surface for them to land on and be studied. We will get an up close and personal view of some of Louisiana’s most magnificent insects!
We recommend downloading iNaturalist to you device before attending this event so volunteers can help you learn how to use the app. There will be limited flashlights and headlamps available for loan. Please bring water.
Children 6 & older are allowed to attend. Parents are required to remain with their child throughout the duration of the program.
