Talkback: Bats

from the others staying there, we eventually cornered it in the toilet and I picked it up, still remember the feel of its tiny claws clutching my fingers. And yes, I know I shouldn't have done but I wasn't up in bat protection in those days. by Warthog

Talkback: Gardening for bats

,really brill to stand and watch.they were very tiny....i do have 2 bat boxes up but unsure if they have nested in them. We are lucky, one of our neighbors has a couple of conifers (taller than the house) and bats have roosted there as long as I have lived here by nashonii@gmail.com

Encouraging bats in our gardens

We talk a lot on here about encouraging beneficial wildlife in our gardens but not a lot about bats. Did you know a tiny pipistrelle can consume 3,000 midges in one night? We used to have a colony of about 30 when we moved here about 20 years ago by obelixx

Talkback: Moths and bats

Very jealous! We have a big street lamp outside our garden so unlikely we'll get bats flying past as there's a big, dark park next door. Did loads of bat walks along the Thames last year though - our bat detector kept picking up stag beetles! many by magz

Talkback: Daddy longlegs

at pictures of them in books.It's strange because spiders are no problem. With you there, Sylvia. Anything that can't seem to fly straight - Daddies, Cockchafers, Stag beetles etc - gets me running for cover.No problem with bats, birds or dragonflies. by Sylvia Robbins
