Bat Emergence Monitoring Program

FREE EVENT

Date: Starting April 19th, 1st & 2nd Friday every month

Time: At dusk (around 7-8:30 pm, depending on time of year) for 1 hour

Description:
Members of our local chapter of Virginia Master Naturalists, in partnership with Bat Conservation and Rescue of Virginia, will be hosting Evenings with Bats by the Pond in the JMU Arboretum on the first and third Fridays of the month, beginning on April 19 and concluding on September 20.  

Visitors should arrive 15 minutes before sunset to hear a brief presentation about bat conservation and behavior, followed by the opportunity to watch bats of the Arboretum emerge for their evening hunt.  Master Naturalists and BCRV volunteers will also be hosting a bat call monitoring station as part of the evening, and visitors can watch and learn more about acoustic monitoring, and what it's telling us about the bats who live in the Arboretum.
