  Sneem Wildlife & Nature - Bats

Every night, except on the coldest winter nights, the bats come out from thier roost in the roof to hunt in the surrounding mountainside. They don't seem to make a dent on the abundant insect life, but I guess they must eat a fair few..


The video above shows the bats hunting on the drive.

I don't know a great deal about bats but thats going to change, as soon as I know more about the different types of bats we have I will update this page with the details. I also put a bat detector online, with a live video/audio stream, when I can, check the web cam section for more details.


The video above shows the bats coming home to roost.
