SUMMARY:Saturday Morning Moth Club
DESCRIPTION: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.About Chris GibsonChris is a naturalist and author who lives in Wivenhoe and spent a career in nature conservation\, before taking early retirement. Now he spends his time trying to enthuse and engage people with the natural world\, through walks\, talks\, books and blogs\, and as the Wildlife Advocate for the Beth Chatto Gardens.
