Yesterday saw the last of our visit to Bedford Schools when we visited Beauchamps Middle School As per usual I did the talk (no one cried this time )and left Rangers Danny and Nicky to build the boxes.
Later that day Danny sent me a photo he head taken of the completed boxes along with a summary of what we had achieved this time round – which I have knicked wholesale
The Bedford Ranger Service and Bedfordshire Bat Group presented a school assembly and then built bat boxes with a group of children, selected by the schools.
This autumn’s bat box building took place in Harpur, Castle and Brickhill wards and was funded by councillor’s Louise King & Colleen Atkins.
