About this program
Come out for an extraordinary night of bat education and fun. Bats are very important animals that are feared and misunderstood by many. The night will start with a presentation discussing general facts about bats, bat habitat, where the best locations are to watch bats at night, how to minimize a bat encounter if you have bats feeding or roosting on your property, and ways to support and help local bat populations. This hour long presentation will be followed by a stroll through Ladner Habour Park where you will be able to watch and hear bats in their natural habitat. During the walk, we will discuss echolocation and how to safely watch bats. Please wear close toed shoes, pants and long sleeves for the walk, and bring bug spray.
