About the event

We will meet just in front of  Devon Wildlife Trust HQ at Cricklepit Mill as dusk approaches. Sarah will introduce us to the world of bats and show us how to use the bat detectors. We will then be ready to detect the bats as they start to emerge from their roosts at dusk, and begin to forage. Although fast, we are also likely to see them whizzing past.

Full joining instructions will be sent out a couple of days before the event. 

This is an event hosted by Saving Devon's Treescapes, a partnership project led by Devon Wildlife Trust on behalf of the Devon Ash Dieback Resilience Forum, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, One Tree Planted and other funders.
