Well, the garden shed. We were delighted yesterday when someone heard
squeaking and shuffling behind the vertical larch lap of one of the sheds.
It looks as if long-eared bats are roosting (nesting?) there. We could
just
see their tiny heads moving about from time to time so we'll have to go
down
there at dusk and wait to see if they emerge. We always get bats around
here in the summer but didn't know they were actually on the property.

That's a coincidence I was just reading in their newsletter how the Woodside
Animal sanctuary is trying to entice bats into their bat boxes


No enticing needed here. We've left them to their own devices and obviously
they're happy. ;-) It's a wonderful time of year with all these birds
around and now bats, too - lovely!
