During the walk, we’ll use special equipment to listen to the sounds bats make as they use echolocation. Experience the hidden world of bats in a whole new way! Please come prepared for a moderate nighttime walk on a wooded, unpaved trail. Dress appropriately for the weather and wear comfortable, sturdy shoes.
