It depends when do they pay you?

Which App do you have? I have a couple of bats around in the evenings catching flies at dusk.

I should get my lazy arse out to see some.  My neighbour claims that there are lots in the woods 100 yards from my house.

I have walked through the woods at night and not seen any, only owls.  One of my neighbours had owls and the bloke next door has now, they used to call to one another (the owls, not the neighbours).  Perhaps they scared the bats away.

I asked the internet if owls eat bats and apparently they do.

It was just one called 'Bat Detector' in the Apple App Store.  I've no idea how accurate it is and it would need a specialised microphone to be properly reliable.

Done a couple group bat walks around the woods at work with a knowledgeable local chap who brings a bunch of detecters with him. The noises they make are quite entrancing.

Do see a load more when on my own around dusk. Shall download the app, thanks.

Went to my daughters (she lives on the edge of the park) and mentioned it to her and she said that they are having 'batwatch' days (nights) at the wetlands/waterfowl park that she volunteers at, apparently there are lots there.

Did have a wander through the park and it was completely batless.

Last ones I saw were flying around my mother in law's house in Whitby, in the nineties.

We don't really notice any bats but do get visitors of various types.

Most nights a pack of jackals seem to do a lap of the village,usually checking out the bins..

The other day elderly friends of the wife rang in a panic as they had broken down on the dual carriageway nearby and didn't know what to do. I popped out and pulled them to a safe place and gave their battery a ten min boost up (broken alt belt) before following them home.

They wanted to pay me but I wouldn't take their money and instead said get me some beer. So they obviously did their homework as earlier they dropped off a pack of my favourite beverage c/w matching pint glass (means I don't need to steal one now from the pub).

My faith in humanity has been restored cheers...
