Tags:
Description: Join this field trip for an evening bat walk in Lee Vining Canyon. While waiting for darkness to fall, Burleigh will beguile us with a captivating introduction into the biologic and behavioral world of bats. We will then head out to Lee Vining Canyon to "see" the bats using Sonobat Live acoustical monitoring equipment. This will allow us to identify each bat by species through an almost instantaneous analysis of their ultrasonic echolocation calls as they fly over. (est. driving miles: 10; hiking difficulty: easy)
