For the Great Southern Bioblitz, 23 October is moth night in the Southern Hemisphere. Moths are totally underrated! Hundreds of different species can be attracted and observed in your backyard. Masters of camouflage, they can look almost exactly like objects in nature such as leaves, bark or even dried sap! Observe what you can and upload your pictures onto iNaturalist!
