Next Friday we again welcome Duncan Davidson to the Gardens so you can discover the marvellous moths living right here on the estate.
Duncan has an incredible wealth of knowledge, having served as Butterfly Conservation Scotland's volunteer recorder for Fife for 13 years and the volunteer County Moth Recorder for Fife and Kinross for a decade. He’s still actively out volunteering and recording what he finds!
What to expect:
Live Encounters: Duncan will have a stall set up right outside the cafe with live moths safely trapped from the night before, giving you a rare up-close look before they are released.
Expert Advice: He'll be on hand for informal chats, sharing tips on habitats and how you can attract these beautiful creatures to your own garden.
Q&A: Bring all your moth-related questions, he is happy to answer them all!
This is a FREE, family-friendly event, no booking required. Just pop by the café stall, say hello, and shine a light on moths with us! 💡
📅 When to catch him (11am – 1pm):
