Oh no, this is the same weekend as the bioblitz down in Williamson county. Sorry, can't make it.

Ah man I will not be able to make it to this event. I am already working at the River Legacy fall festival. I hope it all goes well for you guys. I hope you find some great moths.

@annikaml I know, poor planning on my part. I needed to get Landry's LLELA intern hours cleared for her scholarship so this weekend was the best choice. I'll miss those of you going to the bioblitz down in Williamson county.

Thanks for the invite, Jaime! I probably can't make it (sniff! -- too much happening in October!), but, if I can, I'd love to come.

Lähettänyt kathrynwells333 yli 1 vuosi sitten

Looking forward to this! :) I'll be there with lots of lights!

Oh, how I wish I could be there! Please think of me if you do this again. I could bring my mothing setup. Have fun!!! Can't wait to see what you guys upload to iNat.

Sorry, but an Arkansas bioblitz is on the same weekend.

Looks fun, it'll be right next to the field sites I used to work in last year. The bug and moth activity is really good from what I remember!

Lähettänyt chandlerdavis yli 1 vuosi sitten

I'm hoping to be there!

Lähettänyt karen762 yli 1 vuosi sitten

October weekends are always so busy in the outdoor world! Wish I could make it. The mothing should be excellent. Have fun!

Lähettänyt naturemom yli 1 vuosi sitten

I wish I could come, but I work that night. I will be off during Nov, Dec & Jan - thanks to surgery. If there are any events during that time, I will be there!

Lähettänyt lulubelle yli 1 vuosi sitten

Oh man. Guess I'm a maybe. Have Audubon Big Sit that day so depends if I have energy to drive all the way up there afterwards.

Lähettänyt brentano yli 1 vuosi sitten

I’ll do my best to make it out to this one! I’ve never done one of these mothing events. Does anyone have any spare equipment or mind me tagging along with them?

Lähettänyt observerjosh yli 1 vuosi sitten

Just come, Josh! If you have a headlamp or a spare flashlight, that helps with the photography. There will be loads of stations to watch the bugs flock in! :)

Hi everyone! First of all, I want to give a big thank you to everyone who joined us for mothing on Saturday night! I'm so appreciative that we had a great turn out. Collectively, we made 854 observations with 195 taxa from 21 observers! You can check out the observations here: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?on=2022-10-08&place_id=63542&subview=table.

Thanks again for coming out and making some awesome observations! Hope to see you all again sometime soon!

Lähettänyt landrygrant yli 1 vuosi sitten

I had a great time @landrygrant ! And congrats on an internship well done! I'm so happy that you were able to do a LLELA internship!

Lähettänyt baxter-slye yli 1 vuosi sitten

Just FYI -- this Saturday, we'll have a black-lighting event in Rockwall!!! :) If you're able to make it, it should be pretty interesting!

Sorry for the delay, but I just added my observations from my camera. I'm pretty sure most if not all have been observed by others, but I haven't taken the time to ID them all yet.

Lähettänyt observerjosh yli 1 vuosi sitten

I also just added my observations for LLELA. Sorry for the delay!
