Mothing at Goat Island Preserve [Cancelled]

Hi All. Due to all the rain and more in the forecast for tomorrow, I've cancelled this get-together. Thank you for your interest. Hopefully, we'll reschedule some mothing for this place during moth week or earlier!

I don't think I have anything going on for the 1st yet, so I'm adding it to my calendar! Thanks Adam!! :)

I'm coming! Bringing one setup.

Posted by annikaml almost 3 years ago

I'll be there with about 6 stations!

I'll be bringing a station.

Thanks, Adam, for including me! I'd love to come, if I can.

Absolutely want to come. But I would either have to come very late or not. Oldest has prom that night. So I have to be home to see her off. Then it would be about 45 minute drive over. So I'll have to think on it and get back with you.

@brentano If you want to come late, that's totally ok. You may need to call me or Sam or Annika to let someone know you've arrived. Then I can come get you and show you where we are. No problem at all, man. My number is 214-534-9298 if you don't already have it.

I want to go to this but I'll be out of town.

Thanks Adam for the invite. Never heard about Goat Island before, but that sounds like my kind of place! I will be there! But really want to make sure I have a partner or group to walk in there with. My cell is 940-597-5828. I have Adam’s and Sam’s in my phone.

Thanks, Adam. It's on my calendar. It's been a fairly brutal semester, but I hope the smoke will have cleared a little by then.

Thanks Adam! Never done Mothing, count me in, but no gear. I've been there for Mountain biking. looks like we are expecting rain this week. just in case I suggest bring your rain boots. it gets muddy out there.

I appreciate this invite - I'm 50/50 at this point but will let y'all know either way.

Let's continue to watch that weather -- looks like we may get a touch of rain this weekend... Right now, around ~60% change of rain in the area for Sat eve.

Posted by sambiology almost 3 years ago

@sambiology Definitely. Being so close to the Trinity, I'm wondering if it'll be flooded at the low water crossing to get onto the island. I'll reach out to Joe and see if he knows the status of things. Of course, if it's raining we'll have to change plans.

@tadamcochran Ben Sandifer is a good resource too!

This mothing get-together has been cancelled.

Posted by tadamcochran almost 3 years ago

Yeah -- it's a bit of a bummer, but with how wet and drizzle it was this evening at Mockingbird Nature Park, I think it's a safe bet that we'd not get much at Goat Island. Don't fret -- Adam and I talked about it, and we'll be trying again to moth at this spot later this year -- keep an eye out!

In the meantime, there's a mothing event planned on May 15th at LLELA. I'll toss up a journal post soonish with more details. :)

Dang weather (although all this rain is great!). Y'all have fun today! DFW!!! Woot woot!!!

Posted by baxter-slye almost 3 years ago

@tadamcochran Thanks again inviting me Adam! yeah it's a bummer. I'll keep an eye on next event!
