Okay, Greg, you have to share that cool photo with CBC. Great shot of bats in a crack!

I live near the philly airport and always get bats in my house, everyone freaks out but I always try to save them with oven mitts in the plastic tupperware and then release on a tree in the woods across my house. Would these encounters count as observations? If so, where should I be reporting?

Is there a species that seems to use cracks in CO most?

Do bat boxes help bats? A group of me and some friends made them and hung them around trees. Do the bats like bat boxes?

Ken where did you see the bats in donation? I climb there sometimes, I met you there once with my fiancé not sure if you remember haha! Be good to know though so if I climb there again we can avoid any sensitive areas!

What are some volunteer opportunities?

Great, thank you!

Great presentations everyone! Will the CBC climbing recommendations be available on your website? It would be great to get those out to all the bat listserves as well.

Thank you guys!
