Britain's What's On Event Guide
Angels of the Night Bat Walk and Talk
Join local ‘batman’ James Bisset on International Bat Night for a walk ’n’ talk about Bats around our grounds.
An initial talk introducing these illusive nocturnal mammals will be followed by a walk around the meadows and riverside looking for bats foraging and commuting and listening to the wonderful sounds they make as they use ultrasound to find their way and hunt their prey.
Loan bat detectors to convert their ultrasonic calls to ones we can hear will be available or please bring your own along if you have one.
