Another bat survey bites the dust

Hung tile is a known roosting feature of bats in the UK, this building had it in spades -




Handmade clay hung tile added to buildings to protect them from the elements, offers so many crevices and roosting opportunities that it is almost certain bats will be found under them.

In this building small numbers of bat evidence (droppings) was also found, but even without that this one was going to need full roost characterisation surveys to establish species, population and entry/exit points.
