Join us for an evening discovering some of the nocturnal creatures that fly around Bowlees Visitor Centre at night.

Come and be a bat detective using our bat detectors to tune into their echolocation. We will be dissecting owl pellets to discover the skeletons of their prey and what that tells us about the ecosystem the owls are a part of.

If the weather is warm enough, we’ll take a closer look at the magnificent markings on the many moth species that live here, and learn some of their weird and wonderful names.

Hot drinks and equipment including head torches provided. Wrap up warm and wear comfortable footwear as we’ll be venturing outside for a short bat walk.

This event is suitable for families with children over the age of five years. Please book using the link below. Younger siblings are welcome and do not need to book.
