Scientific Name: Microchiroptera
There are a variety of bats in this area, and every evening in the warm months you can see the Western Pipistrelle fluttering about collecting their evening's meal. Most bats will not bother humans, so there is little need to fear them. Sit by your evening fire and enjoy their display of aerial agility. However, bats can contract and carry rabies. If you find a bat lying on the ground, do not touch it. As with all wild animals, it is best to enjoy them from a distance. |
