Big Bat Count Taunton

Your chance to get involved in real-time, night-time monitoring of bat species and use the very latest, cutting edge bat detecting technology to collect data. The more data we collect about the county’s bats, the better we can conserve the habitats they call home.

One ticket required per group.

Please read these details in full before booking:

Starting out at Somerset Wildlife Trust head quarters you’ll get a short briefing, collect a bat detector and your group will head out to the night. Please note that you will need to arrange your own transport to get to your survey location (your choice). Once you have surveyed your area you will head back to base to return your kit and find out the results.

Please be aware that this is not a guided walk and your team will not be accompanied by a member of staff or volunteer during the survey.

Please specify your preferred location and number of team mebers when you book. Under 16s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
