Bat Walk in Wellow Brook Walk

Join us on a bat walk in Wellow Brook Walk and listen to the high-frequency bat calls!

Join us at Wellow Brook Walk on Friday 22nd May for an evening bat walk.

We will start at 8:00 pm with a brief talk about bat ecology and conservation and then go for a gentle stroll around the grassed areas and along the river looking and listening out for different bat species. We will use bat detectors to pick up the bat's echolocations and work out what species we have recorded. We will finish up at 22:00 pm.

What to bring:

• Suitable clothing
• Sturdy footwear, we will be walking on a gravel & tarmacked footpath
• Water
• Warm clothing
• Torch
