No posts for a while and you may have thought we had gone into torpor!!
Far from it, we have had a radio tag on a non pregnant female (obviously) barbastelle and have so far found 5 roost trees, and got some good film footage. Once the tag stops working I will try to update what has been happening. If interested , in the meantime have a look at our facebook page where Jude has been posting regular updates.
Quick update – found a 6th roost. Tag must be nearing end of its life soon – then we can catch up on (a) sleep and (b) this blog. She escaped vigilant eyes again last night Think we may rename her “Stealth”
The tag lasted fourteen days and has now expired. This means some of us are busy catching up on sleep but we will have more to say about this.
Right until the end our little lady continued to guide us to new roosts. We found 7 in total.
Barbastelle in hibernation, normally this is as close as we get!!
