Hi Sam, I have this on my calendar and will hopefully bring my great-nephew with me.

I'll be there! What can I bring to make taking moth photos easier? My small flashlight last time was a little too unwieldy with trying to use my phone at the same time :). And I hope maybe Sierra can make it out again with me too.

Looks like the weather will cooperate with us tomorrow (Tuesday). It will be hot, still, and super muggy. In other words, PERFECT! :) Again, don't forget to bring lots of water if you come!

@larkinus -- by far the most valuable light I use is a headlamp. This frees up my hands, so it's super useful! Also, I don't directly upload through the app -- if I use my phone to take photos, I'll use the camera and then just edit the photos and upload those instead (choosing the photo from the photo library).
