Moths are far from the furry, dusty, scary things we’ve imagined. With over 10,000 species of them in North America alone, they come in all colors and sizes, and they do the important work of pollinating during the night shift. Dr. Richard Fox, the Head of Science at the UK’s Butterfly Conservation, joins us to talk about these incredible insects. I also share some fun activities you can do to get a close-up look at moths in your own yard.

Linda Åkeson McGurk is the author of two books: There’s No Such Thing as Bad Weather: A Scandinavian Mom’s Secrets for Raising Healthy, Resilient, and Confident Kids and The Open-Air Life: Discover the Nordic Art of Friluftsliv and Embrace Nature Every Day.
Linda is a Swedish American writer who passionately advocates for the Nordic outdoor tradition called friluftsliv. She’s written two books, which I already mentioned, and runs the blog “Rain or Shine Momma” where she shares tips and inspiration for outdoor play everyday, regardless of the weather. And I don’t think these tips are for kids alone. They’re also for the forgotten child inside of all of us who still need free time outside every week.
Her work has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, The New York Times, The New York Post, Huffington Post, and Psychology Today, and more.
