Event Description:
Our Bug Night is a vital part of our annual biodiversity survey on Fishers Island. Led by the esteemed Dr. Adam Mitchell, we will focus on surveying moths to gain insights into the plant species present at the Parade Grounds. This data is crucial for measuring the overall restoration success of the properties managed by FIC.
The event will start at 8:30 PM, and we plan to run the light all night, weather permitting. This allows participants the flexibility to come and go as they please, making it a perfect activity for both dedicated naturalists and casual observers.
By participating in this event, you’ll not only contribute to important scientific research but also get a chance to witness the fascinating nocturnal wildlife of our island. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with nature and support our conservation efforts.
Bring your curiosity and a sense of adventure, and join us for a night of illumination and discovery!
