We’re going on a bat hunt…
A nocturnal quest to see bats and their amazing aerial acrobatics and other night time animals. After a short introduction about these fascinating creatures, you’ll be guided on a night walk around Bore Place farm, along farm footpaths, using bat detectors to listen out for bats as they leave their roosts and fly out to catch insects. Of course we hope to find bats, but please bear in mind that this is a scientific survey monitoring the species onsite, so sometimes we don't find anything! We also hope to spot some other wildlife – possibly deer or hares – and we might even hear owls!
Walk led by Lynne and Peter Flower. EDIT: this walk will now be led by Nina Skinner.
