A late afternoon walk at Noar Hill National Nature Reserve to look at birds, butterflies and flowers followed by a visit to the Basingstoke Canal to search for different species of bats. Excellent service. Trip information was received as soon as the booking was made, so in plenty time for the event. Office staff are very helpful. Jon Stokes, the leader, is very well qualified and knowledgeable and had a good rapport with the group.

Summary
We will spend the evening at the Greywell Tunnel, site of one of the most important winter bat roosts in the UK. Although many of these bats disperse into the surrounding countryside in the summer, this spot is nonetheless one of the best places to see such species as Daubenton’s, Whiskered, Brandt’s, Brown Long-eared, Noctule, Natterer’s, Pipistrelle and Soprano Pipistrelle Bats... and we’ll be learning to recognise them with the help of Jon or Sophie and their bat detector.
- At least 8 species of bat possible
- Learn about bat ecology from our bat expert
- Enjoy a peaceful evening by the Basingstoke Canal
- Use bat detectors to identify bat calls

A bat watching evening in Hampshire included a walk through a nature reserve near us that we didn't know existed, and then spotting and identifying bats. Either of the two trips would have been great, combined together it made for a really wonderful experience - highly recommended.
