I wanted to read this book as I've always had a fear of moths and it's become more of a problem as I've gotten older, and I thought if I could educate myself on them it might help.

And now thanks to Baird I have a new found obsession. This book is so incredibly informative and I thoroughly enjoyed reading the adventures in Lothian and finding new and rare moths. I have been shown them in a new found light and moths are beautiful. I have now been taking to my garden and have found a variety of different moths and plan to set up a light trap to discover more.
I really enjoyed having the photos at the end of the book and more books to read on moths. Thank you for letting me read this brilliant book and enter the world of moths!

What I loved most about this book is the authors obvious love for nature and moths. They give us a great insight into the world of moths but also make it very easy to understand for anyone with no prior knowledge. The book flowed nicely all the way through and was never dry so it held my interest
A lovely book which I would recommend to anyone with an interest in nature

Meetings with Moths, written by Katty Baird, is an engaging and informative book that captures the author's love and fascination for these elusive creatures. As a moth enthusiast, I found the book to be well-written and thoroughly enjoyable.

Baird's passion for moths is evident in every chapter of the book, and her knowledge and expertise are readily apparent. The book is filled with detailed descriptions of the various moth species she has encountered in Scotland, as well as their behaviors and habitats.

One of the things I appreciated most about Meetings with Moths is the way Baird makes the science of moth-watching accessible to readers of all levels of expertise. Her writing is clear and concise, and she does an excellent job of explaining complex concepts in simple terms.

In addition to being informative, Meetings with Moths is also a delightful read. Baird's love for these creatures shines through in her writing, and her enthusiasm is infectious. I found myself becoming increasingly interested in moths as I read the book, and I suspect that other readers will too.

Overall, I highly recommend Meetings with Moths to anyone interested in nature, insects, or simply looking for a great read. Baird's writing is engaging, informative, and enjoyable, and her book is sure to leave you with a newfound appreciation for these fascinating creatures. After reading this book, I will certainly be keeping an eye out for moths on my future nature walks.
