Episode twelve of the podcast marks a year of these monthly in-depth explorations of our work. I hope you've been enjoying them - or, if you're new to us this episode, that you'll take the time to explore the previous episodes. We've done everything from a wildlife safari of a car park, to getting behind-the-scenes at our beaver release, to chatting about the importance of our work with communities.
This episode is all about bats. Senior Monitoring and Research Officer Gwen Hitchcock knows all about these miraculous mammals through her work recording them, and we find out what it is we do to keep tabs on them - and what amazing creatures they really are - whilst scouting for sites for monitoring them at Strawberry Hill. Find out what links jazz hands, wet slaps and inbuilt ear defenders... hint: it's bats. Amazing!
