Bats After Dark

Description

There's so much more to bats than their spooky reputation! Search for bats in the evening sky as we enjoy a walk through fields and forests. Learn about bat behaviors, where they live, and how they communicate as we track their sounds using our Wildlife Acoustics' Echo Meter, which picks up and records their ultrasonic sounds that we cannot hear!

After the program, you will receive an electronic copy of the recording that documents our bat adventure and who was flying overhead.

Checking registration status.
