Y13 Biologists go bat hunting!
Last night, Y13 Biology students went to Queens Valley Reservoir to go bat hunting! Amy and Philip from the Jersey Bat Group kindly met us and provided each student with a bat detector and explained to us about bat diet, their importance to the eco-system and echolocation.
This isn't something that is on the syllabus, but was a request from the students themselves. They were lucky enough to hear the calls of a range of species!
