Results from bat surveys

During the autumn we did two bat surveys at Wapley Bushes Local Nature Reserve, the Orchard and the Common. We found four species each time:

  • Common Pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pipistrellus)
  • Soprano Pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus)
  • Noctule bats (Nyctalus noctula)
  • Serotine bats (Eptesicus serotinus)
