Flying Bat Observation Count and Talk

Wednesday, July 23, 2025

If you are interested in the bats of Iowa join us for a bat talk inside shelter 3 and a bat count observation outside at the bat houses nearby. We will stand by the bat houses and count how many bats fly out at dusk. We will have hand tally counters at each of the bat houses and count how many bats are using the new bat houses. We will discuss the benefits of bats and mention what human behaviors and diseases that threaten them. This program is limited to the first 80 people who register so register soon. A free mini flyer handout on bats by Bat Conservation International will be available. Bat house plans for free will also be available. Register at www.mycountyparks.com Questions contact John Laird at 515-297-0423 Cell or 515-832-9570 Office jlaird@hamiltoncounty.org
