1 mink, looked like a young one, fishing in the Irwell at Waterfoot. Looked to have come from Cowpe Brook. Should the local pest control officer be informed or one of the local countryside rangers? cheers Kevin -- Edited by KEVIN LISTER at 21:22, 2007-07-10

I was asked by a neighbour today, who was renovating there kitchen, if I could help move a Bat which was about to be painted.

Hi, Large variations in the numbers of bats (15 recordings in one night & 200 the next), frequenting / feeding along the lane to Riley`s farm. Variations probably due to strong winds forcing the insects to take cover in the lee of trees. The bats exploit these conditions just like the hirundine...
