About the event

Warton Crag nature reserves are an important site for many rare and unusual moths. We will search for moths by dusking and attracting them to lights and sugar. We will also observe bats at dusk and after dark using bat detectors. We'll mainly be in the area around the car park so there will be little walking. Bring warm clothes and torches. If it is a good night we may stay much later, but being near the car park throughout, people may leave at any time.

Anyone who enjoys nature is welcome to join us. No knowledge or experience necessary. Everyone very welcome. Hear about the wildlife we see, do some wildlife photography or simply enjoy some like-minded company. In the case of doubtful weather do email or ring 07361 380255, to check in case of cancellation or postponement. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Dogs are not allowed. Suitable outdoor clothing and footwear are strongly recommended. Bring water - and a packed lunch for the all-day events. There is no charge but donations are always welcome.
