Leader: Lilliana Ortega

This is an evening field trip to McArthur Island Park. We will be starting in the butterfly garden and plan to spend two hours at the park observing key bat-habitat features and discussing the lives of bats in BC. There is a high likelihood that we will be able to spot bats hunting in the area and identify their species through acoustic monitoring. The walk will mostly be on paved paths but be sure to bring comfortable footwear and appropriate clothing for the weather; there will be mosquitoes! You can bring water, snacks, a headlamp/handheld lamp, and all of your bat questions!
