A busy night at the Lakeside survey last night While some us counted the bats out of the roost Soggy Dave, Bob and John went of for a wander round a nearby wood.,which had many mossies and lots of toadlets. Birder Dave was happy to spot\u00a0 a tawny owl and a hobby and Bob was delighted to hear a barbastelle.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“Lakeside survey heralded 1130 bats this time and more than a million biting midges ! it was like a bat cr\u00e8che with 3 grounded bats !”<\/span><\/span><\/h5>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This site was a bat creche in more ways than one. Geraldine and Dick bought their recent patient to have its genitals peered at and Sogs bought a bat she had in care to pas over to Jude as she was going on holiday at the weekend.<\/p>\n

She was also called out to a bat just before she came to the survey, another common pipistrelle. This one had had a too close encounter with a cat and its injuries were such that it was decided to euthanase it.<\/p>\n

We were doing an NBMP roost count and the rules say to watch until ten minutes after the last entry. Just as we had finished there was a small flurry of bats returning to the roost- mums returning to feed their pups. There was certainly plenty of food around last night<\/p>\n
