Night of the bat in Wortel-Kolonie

Evening falls. The silhouette of a tree stands out against the dark blue sky. The leaves rustle softly in the wind. The moon and stars become visible and here and there the lights of houses can be seen. Suddenly a sound comes from a speaker: “pip pap pip pap pap pip…” You look up and suddenly see a shadow appear between the branches: a bat! How is it that we don't hear these sounds? And how do they find their prey if they can't see? And do these little creatures really fly into your hair? And why don't they fall down when they hang upside down to sleep? If you want to know the answer to all these questions, definitely come to the Night of the Bat. First, we take a dive into the life of the bat. When it gets dark, we go in search of these fascinating animals with the help of a ‘bat-detector’. You will hear, see, and experience for yourself how bats fly, where they live, how they hunt and drink!
