Description

This class will be a general introduction to bats, their natural histories, ecologies, and how they are studied. The Central Coast bat cohort will be presented in context with these characteristics. A brief natural history and ecology of each of the Central Coast’s 19 species will be revealed, along with their identifying features and clues for their identification in the field and in the hand. Note: This class will NOT involve living specimens or handling of such. There will be one optional, weather-dependent field opportunity to observe and acoustically sample bats at a nearby location.
