Bat evening at Dunorlan

Turned out on a slightly chilly and breezy evening to support Val on a bat walk for the High Weald Project. Pam was also there so we compared notes on our first Daubenton's Bat survey last night, and reported back to Val.

Pam is also working with Ightham Mote to set up some bat walks there, and so I have offered to help out with those as well.

We did quite well tonight, and although the Noctules didn't shows quite so clearly as last week, I certainly got better views of the Daubenton's bats skimming over the water - really spectacular! Good numbers of both Soprano and Common Pipistrelles heard and seen - it really is a great place for a bat walk.
