Took part in a local state park's bioblitz by offering our moth sheet setup last night.
It was the first time the park did a moth survey and we were proud to help.
I shot over 85 species of moths and insects and one giant bullfrog in about 4 and a half hours!
Kudos to the park naturalist and his assistant as they had been counting other things such as plants, birds, etc. all day prior!
We got home around 1:15am.

Good for you! Nothing like getting out to new areas to look for moths and other nocturnal creatures. 85+ species for late August is fantastic!! V
