Good afternoon-
I so appreciate this platform to share programs and events with the birding
community across Western NY. Last week we held a moth program at the Montezuma
Audubon Center, and had participants from as far as Buffalo attend because of
this listserve.
I wanted to share our next up
I was out front of the house just now, looking for BATS. At 2047, 2 appeared
flying in tandem. In the next fifteen minutes, they flew over 8 times, always
in tandem, from 1' to 4' apart. They moved very quickly; this was not typical
foraging behavior. It looked to me like a synchronized co

I don't know if it's okay to keep this going, but... We have bats in our
attic and our barn. I'm not really sure if they stay all winter. But we
usually have 3 or 4 come into the living quarters during the summer. I
think it would be a good idea to ban them from the attic, but don't know
how to

Stupid question, but what do they do the rest of the year?
But in all seriousness, thanks for the useful information! I've had close

I'd be interested in the answers you get. We have had bats hibernating in
our garage for years. We've sealed up every possible entry space but they
still get in. They live in our bat house in the summer but they prefer the
warm garage in the winter. We had a beautiful orange (!) bat on a deck

Does anyone know of a bat expert in Ithaca - perhaps at Cornell or IC? We
had two bats show up in our house last night, a little after midnight! We
have no idea how they got in, and we were unable to catch them in our bat
net and release them, so they no doubt will show up again. They didn't fly
I started my occasional nighthawk survey from my house this evening. None

Chris, hope this is okay to report. This evening while sitting on my deck

Best,
Ann Mitchell
