There has continued to be lots of comments about Sir Tim Baldry’s  recent speech at Westminster Hall.  I make no apology for going back to the subject.

 

Dr Kirsty Park of Stirling University has just posted a comment on her blog . (Kirsty’s PhD was bat related and she knows of what she speaks).

I should point out to those of a nervous disposition that these are not real bats  and that the bats living in our churches are not this size.

They are made by greensmith (some one who works with copper). I stole this photo from http://2dales.org.uk/churches/st-andrews/bats.html which led me to Graculus sculptures. Being a Noggin the Nog fan I headed for a closer look. Yes I know this isn’t a bat but it is fabulous
