Moth Morning

Sat 25 Apr
From 10:00

Moth Morning Workshop with  susan falconer

Explore the wonderful world of moths in this unique event.

Join exhibiting artist Susan Falconer for a free Moth Morning on Saturday 25 April, where she'll open moth traps set overnight to record the moths she finds before releasing them back into the wild.

Free, drop in, no booking needed.

All welcome (All children must be accompanied by an adult)

10am - 12pm.

Meet under the bandstand in the Beatrix Potter Garden.

Susan Falconer, a wildlife photographer whose photos feature in Jan Hendry's moth exhibit 'FRAGILE,' invite you to join in a 'Moth Morning', where you'll engage with real life moths, caught in 'moth traps' overnight. Come and learn about getting involved in citizen science before the moths are released back into the wild.

 

 

Description

 Fueled by curiosity, Susan Falconer - a keen naturalist and photographer based in Fife - enjoys taking photos of wildlife - birds, invertebrates, plants, fungi.

 Originally studying geography at university, Jan worked as a countryside ranger in Fife for many years, where she raised her family. She later fulfilled a long-held ambition to attend art college, studying Fine Art at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design. Since 2003, she has worked as a practising artist alongside a range of part-time roles, including contracts with countryside and heritage organisations. For many years, Jan has aspired to develop a project that brings together her passion for visual research and ecology, creating meaningful ways to share this work. This project is the realisation of that ambition.

FRAGILE: Moths, Life Systems and Us is an art and ecology project funded by the Scottish Government through Creative Scotland.
