About this Event
Actitivy
Armed with bat detectors and ID guides, join us and explore Palacerigg Country Park at night! We will take a gentle walk through the park, stopping at locations along the route to look and listen for bats. Discoveries from the evening will contribute to wider research, helping us understand Cumbernauld's resident wildlife!
This session will be run by Joey Baker, one of our Ecological Trainees, and Cumbernauld Living Landscape's bat expert! Joey has been monitoring bats accross Cumbernauld's reserves as part of his recent project.

*what3words is the easiest way to find and share precise locations. Traditional street addresses aren’t always accurate enough—especially when it comes to specific meeting spots like entrances, paths, or areas without buildings.
As most of our meeting points will be away from traditional address locations, we recommend using what3words as the primary method for finding us.
