We did a number of very successful surveys at Wrest Park and found a lot of interesting bats. There was a lot of interest from staff and we have developed a good working relationship. Thanks to Amy, who is\u00a0 Great Garden and Trainee Manager we finally got access to the area under the terrace which is a warren of rooms<\/p>\n

It was 10 degrees centigrade inside compared to 2 degrees outside, so it may have been a bit warm.<\/p>\n

We hope to go back in February for another look<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
