We have some great events coming up at Leighton Moss in the next couple of weeks.
Want to discover the fascinating world of moths? Join one of two sessions: Meet the Moths at the Moss on Sunday 22 July is a drop-in workshop where you can learn more about these amazing nocturnal insects. The moth trap will be opened at 10am and will be followed by a short introductory talk. Test out your identification skills with the help of the experts on hand or simply marvel at the variety of shapes, colours and sizes.
For those wishing to get even more in depth, we have the fantastic Moths: Beginners Workshop on Saturday 28 July. Learn how to identify a wide range of moths and learn all about their often awe-inspiring life cycles. This workshop will feature a detailed presentation and you will get to examine moths up close with local experts. Numbers are limited so book your place today!
Thinking of buying some binoculars or a new spotting 'scope? Come and meet our friendly and impartial team for hands-on advice about optical equipment at our great Binocular and Telescope Open Weekend on Sat 29 and Sun 29 July. Have the chance to try them outdoors and find the perfect optics for your needs and budget.
Hope to see you there!
