The 11th annual National Moth Week takes place during July 23-31. Join Docent Naturalists Debbi Brusco, Jack Owicki, Vivian Neou, Ray Curiel, and guest Eddie Dunbar, and discover nocturnal moths and other insects. You'll observe surprisingly beautiful and interesting critters attracted to a special light, photograph them if you like, and submit them as citizen scientists to iNaturalist or another moth week partner data repository. See www.nationalmothweek.org for additional information. Bring water/snacks, a flashlight, and your camera or phone. This activity takes place at the parking lot; participants will have the option to leave earlier than the scheduled end time. This easy activity is well suited for those needing a less physically challenging outing.

Where to Meet

Meet at the Monte Bello Parking Area on Page Mill Road (across from Los Trancos Preserve), 7 miles west of I-280 or 1.5 miles east of Skyline Boulevard. Those traveling from I-280 on Page Mill Rd. should allow approximately 35 minutes travel time.
