Tutor: James Duncan
As the sun begins to set, the bats emerge from their roosting spots around Wadhurst Park. Join James to look and listen for them using specialised bat detecting equipment. The evening will begin with a short talk before we set out to search for these incredible creatures of the night.
James Duncan has led hundreds of walks and courses for Sussex Wildlife Trust and has an encyclopaedic knowledge of natural history and a wealth of fascinating facts to share.
