Join in for a unique chance to visit the reserve with a warden at dusk. First, you'll help the Reserve Warden to set a moth trap, checking it before you leave for the night to see what's been caught.
You'll then walk around some of the reserve, firstly looking for barn owls at dusk, before searching for bats when it becomes dark. The Reserve Warden will talk to you about tracking, recording and identifying bats, and you'll get to use a bat detector to hear the sounds of different bat species.
Please note the event involves walking over rough terrain.
