About the event

Join us for one of our popular evening bat walks around Skew Bridge Lake (also known as 'Bat Alley'), when staff and volunteers will be on hand to explain more about these amazing animals and show you how to use a bat detector (provided) to listen to the bat's echolocation calls and identify the species present.

Please bring a torch if you have one, we also recommend insect repellent.

Who are the Northants Nature Girls?

This is a group designed for women who love nature and the outdoors to meet like minded people, whilst enjoying time in nature. We aim these events for women in roughly their 20s and 30s but this is not a strict age bracket. Can't join us this time? We will be hosting monthly meetings throughout the year so keep your eyes peeled!

You can also join our Facebook group here, to connect with others and hear about upcoming events.
