About

Moths & More Evening Field Trip
Sax-Zim Bog

At almost 600 species, moths are the most species rich group documented in the greater Sax-Zim Bog! Even though they are one of the most species rich groups of insects, moths don’t get the same attention as their day flying relatives: butterflies! Moths often surpass their cousins in color, pattern, behavior, and specialized relationship to plants. This field trip will serve as a good introduction to the moth diversity in northeastern Minnesota. We will also use some of our time waiting for moths to arrive by listening for night singing insects, birds, mammals, and more! Because this field trip is at night, and mostly stationary, plan on bringing a head lamp or flashlight and folding chair.
