Bats

Thursday: Local walk organised by Andy Brook to see Bats on McIntyres field, part of the Lancing Ring local nature reserve.
At height of activity about ten Bats were estimated but difficult to verify in the poor light.
Species not confirmed. Daubenton's was suggested but the habitat and location was not typical for that species. I believe they may have been Serotine (Eptesicus serotinus), I recall from communications with the Sussex Bat group that this species were known for this habitat.
