Butterfly Conservation holds an annual meeting for moth recorders in the UK.
These meetings provide a great opportunity to hear about progress with the National Recording Scheme, find out the latest developments in moth research and conservation with fellow recorders.
The meeting is open to anyone interested in moth recording and conservation and is followed by a County Moth Recorder Meeting.
When and where?
The next meeting will be held virtually via Zoom on Saturday 29 January 2022.
