- Skills to IDENTIFY bats in flight
- Making RECORDings of bats ultrasound calls
- PROCESSing those recordings to confirm the bats species
- How to SHARE your records with the batty world
- Running a bat detector making WORKSHOP for others.
This site is run by volunteers from the Somerset bat group in the UK, and mostly relates to UK bat species. However the methods, processes and techniques can be applied to bats worldwide.
