Night Hike: Batty for Bats
Saturday, August 31, 2024 | 7:45 p.m. - 9:45 p.m.
Are you Batty for Bats? Do you want to discover more about these endearing nocturnal mammals? Come and join us on this guided walk where we hope to meet some of the bats who make Shaker Village’s Preserve their home. On a leisurely walk through the Preserve we’ll listen for and identify common Kentucky bat species using acoustic devices. We’ll also discuss the bats' habitat and food needs, along with the conservation challenges we face today. Weather permitting, our evening will conclude at Shaker Village’s Amphitheatre where we will enjoy a bat-related discussion around the fire.
