News ALERT…bats!

For those of you interested in wildlife and nature there is good news, a bat was seen in the park by two Friends late evening last Tuesday. Seen flitting at speed it was most likely Britain’s smallest bat a common pipistrelle, they are only 4cm long and weigh about 5 grams – less than a £1 coin! and can eat over 3,000 tiny insects in a single night!

This is the third year running that bats have been recorded in Wormholt Park, and the Friends have registered the park with the Green City Bats scheme.
