Don’t forget our open meeting on Wednesday 19th March at 7.30 p.m.
It is in the Members’ room at the Société Jersiaise, Pier Road, St. Helier. No need to book.
Come and have a coffee and a chat and find out how you could make a difference!
Maybe you would enjoy manning the stall at the RJA&HS shows – a chance to chat to people about bats while raising some funds for the group.
Or, help the members who are bat carers by collecting bats when members of the public find grounded or injured bats. And, if you wish, learn how to care for them until they can be released.
How well do you know your parish? You could help find a nice bat walk that we can use for one of our public walks. And coming along on one of these public walks is great fun too!
Would you like to be a citizen scientist, and encourage others to join in too? Why not take on publicising the annual Great Garden Bat Watch through social media etc., then analyse the results and report the details.
Occasionally a home owner discovers they have a bat roost (lucky them!) and would like to know what kind of bats they are. While we cannot undertake commercial surveys we are happy to come along and see what bats we can detect. This can be a lovely way to spend a peaceful evening, watching for when the bats emerge, using the group’s bat detectors. You could join in!
You may not know much about bats to start with but taking part in the group’s various activities and learning from others will mean you will soon be telling people what you have discovered about these fascinating mammals.
See you in Wednesday!
