About the Event

Join UNH Cooperative Extension Wildlife Conservation State Specialist Haley Andreozzi for a presentation and demonstration at Squam Lakes Natural Science Center to learn more about the bat species found in New Hampshire, the threats leading to population declines, and how you can help conserve bats. The training will start with an indoor presentation on bats in New Hampshire, followed by a bat counting demonstration outdoors at dusk. Attendees will be trained to participate in the NH Bat Counts project, which involves citizen science volunteers in helping to monitor summer bat colonies in New Hampshire.

This event is free, but space is limited and registration is required.

Sponsored by UNH Cooperative Extension, NH Fish & Game and Squam Lakes Natural Science Center.

What to bring

The second half of the workshop will be held outside. Be prepared for bugs (especially mosquitoes) – bring bug spray or wear clothing to protect yourself. Bring a flashlight or headlamp to increase visibility walking back to your car.
