Are bats still about?

They're still flying about in our garden, I love going out to watch them at dusk

What noise?

We have a bat detector that picks up a noise that you can't hear normally It let's us know there's bats about about and what direction to look in

Yeah, I've played with that (want!) but I was surprised Geri could hear anything with the 'naked ear' as it were, as I've never heard them making any sound.

No, I can't hear 'em either

Had one flitting about in front of the window at home for the last few nights, so still seem to be about!

Was working up in a loft the other week and came across a nest! Told the owner of the house who called in the local bat group. They set up a watch and counted 40+ bats coming out at dusk - they must be nesting in the cavity wall - I only saw 3 of them! Amazing creatures.

They're great arent they? Last year we went on a walk with Dorset Wildlife Trust who had a few of these in tow. They certainly make watching bats more 3D...

I dont have bats in my garden.
