** Bat Sightings **
(Preview)
I know it is not the right time of year, but could I ask anyone posting bat sightings to this forum to consider also posting the information to the East Lancashire Bat Group Forum? I've added it under the Links section but its address is http://www.eastlancsbats.org/forum/
