Hibernation survey opportunity Burham 1

An opportunity for paid up members of the bat group to take part in a National Bat Monitoring Programme (NBMP) Hibernation Survey in a location close to Burham.

Numbers are limited owing to the nature of the activity and are led by licensed surveyors under IUCN Bat Specialist Group guidelines.

To express your interest please complete the form here. We have received a lot of interest in these surveys and aren't looking for more volunteers at the moment. You can still complete the form, but you won't be contacted unless a space becomes available. Thanks to all.

Actual location and timings will be provided to participants nearer the time.
