Join park naturalists and fellow insect enthusiasts to explore the various insects that are attracted to bright lights in the forest. Stay as long as you'd like to observe and learn. Stay by the lights, or join leaders on a slow, dark, walk in search of nibbling nocturnal caterpillars. We expect to find various moth species, beautiful caterpillars and various other interesting insects. If you're interested in nocturnal insects please purchase and bring your own high powered blacklight flashlight such as the uvBeast with 100 LEDs. Some extra lights will be available to share.
