Bat and Moth evening at Llanafan
Hi All, posting this on behalf of Aline who will be running this evening event - please give her loads of support, it sounds like it will be a great night!
Net :)
The Bat and Moth evening for the Llanafan ‘Wildlife Where you Live’ group will take place on Thursday 22nd September. Start time: 7 pm at Lisburne Hall. If it’s dry, we’ll walk around the village and look for bats (there are previous records of Natts, BLE, and pip roosts around the village - I hope it’s not to late in the year to find anything). If it’s wet, I’ll prepare an indoor presentation including photos and bat sounds.
The event will last about 1.5 hours, followed by refreshments. We’ll share the evening with Liz Snell from the Ceredigion moth group, so will have about 45 minutes of batty time (hopefully our bats won’t munch too many of her moths, or we won’t be invited again!)
Its open to anyone of any age and ability – you don’t need to live in Llanafan.
Any members of the bat group who would like to come along to lend a hand, or just as a participant, would be most welcome. It would be good to split into smaller groups for the bat walk, so please let me know if you are able to come and help. Plus, if you haven’t been to a moth event before, I would thoroughly recommend it - the variety and habits of moths are quite a revelation!

But for the bat group, no problem for anyone to contact me by home e-mail (preferred) or phone.
Many thanks,
Aline
