CNHS/Essex Moth Group Tiptree Heath Mothing Session

Tiptree Heath is a small fragment of what was once a much larger area of  heathland that stretched from Maldon to Messing. For such a small area it holds a  wealth of wildlife. The area is actively managed to enhance this. Moth trapping  here in the past has always been very productive with a number of scarce and  attractive species being caught. Please bring a seat and a torch with you and a  wide-brimmed hat to protect your eyes from the bright light that is used to attract  the moths. 

Meet at the Tiptree Heath car park on the B1022 Tiptree to Maldon road at about  800 metres to the Maldon side of Tiptree. For further information and to book  please contact Dougal Urquhart on 07494 866157 or Joan Pinch on 07546 365316.  Please note there are no toilets on site but it will get dark!
