The wait is over! Tonight is Moth Night, Tuesday, July 24, from 8:30 to 10 pm at DeKorte Park. In case of rain, we will still be holding a talk about moths by the Bergen County Audubon Society inside. You’ll learn the importance of these amazing, lesser-known cousins of butterflies and gain a new perspective on the misunderstood creatures and how they benefit the environment.

If the weather holds up there will be kids activities outside, including painting trees to attract moths and a scavenger hunt.

If you have any questions please call 201-460-4619.

The countdown is on to Butterfly Day this Sunday, July 29, from 10 am to 3 pm at DeKorte Park. There’s a great story with a video on the festival in today’s Record featuring NJSEA Naturalist Gaby Bennett-Meany and BCAS President Don Torino!
