Batty about bats!
Not all bats are out and about at Halloween – come and meet the ones that stay tucked up warm at night. Come and meet the orphaned and injured bats that didn’t go out to play at Halloween. Some are young orphans waiting to join a roost, some are injured and will never fly again. A unique opportunity to see these secretive creatures up close and learn more about their lives and what to do if you come across an injured one.
10.00 am to 3.00 pm (bat talks at 11.30am and 1.30 pm)
Reserve entry fee applies: £4 adult, £2 children, £8 families
