Weds 14th Sept 2022 – GREYFIELD WOODS

A great turnout of over 20 from the High Littleton and Hallatrow Environmental Group, saw three groups log 75 bat records. Our first foray outside Somerset, this was a joint Big Bat Count with Avon Bat Group, and we were pleased the welcome their ex. chair Dave back to the bat world!

Noctules were seen straight after sunset, with common and soprano pipistrelle also frequent. Daubenton's were also seen near the Cam Brooke.

Initial results are in iNaturalist - https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&project_id=big-bat-count&subview=map&verifiable=any

Wiveliscombe Big Bat Count - 20th Sept 2022

After several postponements due to rain, we finally got a dry night, abit one that cooled off quickly.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who came along:

  • 106 records of bats
  • a new common pipistrelle roost found
  • and the rescued brown long-eared bat released itself!
    Overall a very successful night.

Looking at the recordings made, common pipistrelle is by far the most abundant, but we also recorded confirmed soprano (pygmy) pipistrelles, serotine, myotis (species) and one faint lesser horseshoe recorded by the old brewery near the entrance to Yew Tree Antiques.

You can see all the results on the map on the iNaturalist website: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/wiveliscombe-bat-survey-08-22?tab=observations&subtab=map

My sincere thanks to all, and I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.
