About this event

Join City of Boroondara as we compete in the 2024 City Nature Challenge. You'll be helping to put Boroondara's flora and fauna on the world map, whilst contributing to important citizen science data collection. The challenge runs for 4 days only: Friday 26th - Monday 29th April 2024.

We invite you to come along and join in an evening of moth spotting and identification with the Entomological Society of Victoria.

We will be on hand to help you spot, learn about, and record your sightings, as we focus on our amazing moths! We encourage you to download the free iNaturalist app prior to the event, however this is not essential to attend the session.

Together, let's see the incredible moths that Boroondara has to offer!
