Pumpkins at Luton Hoo walled garden 2012 .. Photo Jude Hirstwood
Tonight lots of people will be out trick and treating or carving pumpkins or generally having a good time. I’ve talked before about why bats are associated with Halloween, https://www.bedsbatgroup.org.uk/wordpress/?p=6694 but in real life, most bats are tucking themselves sway getting ready to hibernate. This is usually our quietest time of year though we do have some talks coming up and then it will be into hibernation surveys
Contrary to what some people think, bats don’t just come out at Halloween
