All About Bats (Hammel Woods)
Hammel Woods- Route 59 Access • 554 Brook Forest Ave Shorewood, IL 60404 Organized by Forest Preserve District of Will CountyAbout this event
Description
We're sorry, but this program is over. The last meeting was Friday, August 2, 2024.
Join a naturalist to learn about these often misunderstood fascinating creatures of the night. Learn about our local bat species and find out how they are essential to a healthy ecosystem. As the bats silently leave their daytime roost, we’ll use bat-detecting equipment to reveal exactly who is heading out into the night. Then we’ll head out for a short hike to explore bat habitat and see if we can spot them performing their nightly aerial acrobatics as they search for food. The hike will be less than 1 mile on natural surfaces over uneven terrain. Meet at the Shorewood Grove Shelter.
