An evening with the Moths of Rye Harbour

Some of Rye Harbour’s most amazing animals take to the sky at night … but only a few people ever get the chance to see them. This special evening event gives you the opportunity to come face to face with the nature reserve’s beautiful (and bizarre!) moths and learn all about them.

The evening starts with an illustrated presentation that introduces you to the diversity of moth species that can be found here in Sussex. Then we will open the previous night’s moth trap and identify what we have caught.

After these moths have been released we will set up moth traps out on the reserve to give us the chance to understand more about moth surveying and observe the moths as they come to the light. Suitable for adults. No previous knowledge required.
