As our conservation work at White Cliffs continues, we need to know more about the moth species, and we're running a series of moth surveys. Some moth species are only active, or more active, at night, so we'll be joining them when the White Cliffs are normally deserted. The moths are attracted by a cold light and are not harmed during the survey. After they've been identified and counted, they are released to carry on their important work. Moth expert, Kevin Button, will be co-leading the events with Mel Wrigley and will help you identify the moths and tell you about their habits. Kevin has been recording here for c8 years. This is also your opportunity to share your knowledge of moths. Numbers are limited and booking is essential. The events are likely to continue beyond midnight, as this is when the moths are most active. However, you can leave at any time during the event. Just tell the organiser that you would like to exit, so that the car park gate can be opened.
