Derbyshire Bat Conservation Group


On Friday I went on a bat walk at Albert village with Derbyshire Bat Conservation Group.
They gave me a bat monitor that made a different sound with every type of bat. There are 17 species of bat in Britain 11 of these have been found in Derbyshire. Here is the link to the group http://www.derbyshirebats.org.uk/

We only saw a few bats, but we saw GLOW WORMS !!!!! I didn't think they were in this country they were a really bright green.

DID YOU KNOW :
Female glow worms glow to attract a mate. Once they have mated and laid their eggs they die. If they don't find a mate they die from exhaustion from creating the glow. The male glow worms can fly to find their mate.
