Mijat, you can set up a National Moth Week event wherever you are. It doesn't matter of you don't know much about moths, we will try to help you! Submitting moths to my "Moths of the World" mission during National Moth Week (July 20-28) will contribute to a data collection for nationalmothweek.org.

Hello Mijat! Your moths spottings are beautiful! Would you like to register a National Moth Week event? The registration form is in the link below, and if it is just you, that's perfectly okay! You can make an event private if you would like the event to be only you, or you could make it public and invite some friends! I do not think Macedonia is on the National Moth Week map yet, although we would love to have you! http://nationalmothweek.org/2013-registration/world-registration-form/
