Bat survey – Scalby Cut LNR
Sep 5 @ 1845 – 2145
We will be carrying out a point survey in response to Robert Weatherley’s request for some bat information on Scalby cut. We will try recording at least 5 points across the site to see what bats are using the site. In addition to anyone with a suitable bat recorder we will also be looking for some ‘minders’ who are prepared to assist and accompany those that have. It should be an interesting site with open fields, woodland and also the stream running the length of it. Meet at the small car park by the pumping station at TA 02791 90876 What3Words: admit.aims.frosted
