SUMMARY:Wild about Bats!
DESCRIPTION:As the sun dips low and the night draws near\, we humans usually turn in for the night…but this is show-time for bats! Join us to celebrate these amazing animals during this special series in collaboration with Bat Conservation & Rescue of Virginia. You’ll get a rare chance to come face-to-face with these mysterious creatures\, learn all about them from local bat rehabilitators\, and identify bats in flight using specialized sound-detecting equipment. \nThis program will be conducted under a covered shelter with seating and includes optional slow-paced walking. The evening will begin with an informational talk about these unique animals\, bat-themed crafts\, and face painting\, and conclude with a walk to detect bats as they come out for early-evening hunting. You will also have the opportunity to meet one the Bat Conservation & Rescue of Virginia’s rehabilitated bats! \nPlease meet at Shelter #4. Suitable for all ages. Bring binoculars if you have them\, and if you decide to bring a light please use it on a red light setting to avoid disturbing nocturnal wildlife. Wear appropriate clothing and shoes for the weather and bring a water bottle with you. Parks are for everyone\, please let us (434) 933-4355 know if you need special accommodation. \nFor more information\, please call (434) 933-4355 or email Tess.Himelspach@dcr.virginia.gov. \nKnow Before You Go: Before your visit\, find the most up to date health and safety information here.
