Narrows Wood

  After a Second Successful year with the Pied Flycatchers breeding at our small private nature reserve. We hope to increase this Success with the installation of 8 new nest boxes at our site for this years Breeding season. We have also installed 5 Bat boxes at our site this year starting our Bat Conservation project. There are 7 Known bat species in Wales that may possibly use our site as a roost site in the tree canopy. The Brown Long-Eared Bat, Noctule Bat, Lesser Horseshoe Bat, Barbastelle Bat, Soprano Pipistrelle Bat ,Nathusius’ Pipistrelle Bat & Common Pipistrelle Bat. We have I seen Pipistrelle flying in the evenings along the rides of our Wood and have captured a Brown Long Eared Bat on Trail cam on the wing flying past the camera last year. So fingers crossed the newly installed bat boxes will bring Us some success providing roosting spots for the Bats. If there is a local Bat Group in the Powys area that would be willing to help Monitor the bats at our Site Please con
