  • Ruffner Mountain 1214 81st Street South Birmingham, AL. 35206 United States (map)

CANCELLED DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER

To show our appreciation for member support, we are offering members a guided night hike and other mothing activities to celebrate National Moth Week! National Moth Week celebrates the beauty, life cycles, and habitats of moths. You can read more about it here.

Join us on Friday, July 29 from 7:30 pm — 10:00 pm along with moth enthusiasts, Dr. Pete Van Zandt and Stott Noble, who will set up mothing sheets for participants to identify moth species. Ruffner naturalists will lead an optional night hike that will be approximately one mile in length up the Quarry Trail. The hike is recommended for ages 5 and up. Please wear hiking shoes and bring water and a headlamp if you have one.
