About the event

As Andy opens the light traps set the night before, you'll get a close-up look at an incredible variety of species found at this impressive wildflower-rich nature reserve - from strikingly colourful hawkmoths to tiny micro-moths. Discover the secret lives of these nocturnal wonders and gain a new appreciation for their beauty and importance.

Umbra Nature Reserve is not normally open to the public, so this is a unique chance to visit and find out more.

Please wear suitable clothing and footwear for an outdoor event. Bring binoculars if you have them. Suitable for over 12s. A waiting list is available and you will be notified if a place becomes available.
