Scalby Cut bat survey
Sep 5 @ 18:30 – 22:30

Robert Weatherley has requested some bat data on this proposed LNR. We will carry out a point survey of the site using as many suitable points as possible, hopefully at least 5 covering the open grassland the woodland and also the cut itself. Please let Nick Gibbons know if you are interested in taking part. We will be looking to make sure everyone has a ‘buddy’, especially in the woodland and cut areas, so it is a chance to learn a little about bats even if you do not have a suitable detector.
