About this Event
‘The fascinating and mysterious world of Worcester Cathedral’s bats’
Did you know that England’s bat species are known as “environmental indicators” because their fates are so closely linked to the health of the natural world around us. Come and join us for an illustrated chat about the amazing bats of Worcestershire and hear more about the nationally important role which Worcester Cathedral plays for nature conservation.
We’ll take a walk around the cathedral’s grounds to look and listen for bats, and we’ll have special bat detectors allowing us to listen-in on the bats as they fly around hunting for insects.
Your bat evening (held on International Bat Night, celebrated in more than 30 countries) will be led by Cody Levine of Worcestershire County Council and Worcestershire Bat Group. Cody’s a chartered ecologist with more than 20 years’ experience working with wildlife, and has a particular interest in bats and lighting.
Please note:
· The route may include some inclines and uneven path [includes steps down to Kleve Walk and the riverside, an area which is partly illuminated]
· Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
· It’s recommended to bring a torch and wrap up warm
Venue: The Undercroft learning centre. Enter the Undercroft through College Green (see the map).
