A message from Chris Tidemann:

some exciting bat news - about 20 female bats in Cwealth Pk are carrying young - means they were dropped here, or not far away - and that the camp will probably continue to grow.
I don't subscribe to COG chatline any more - maybe you'd like to post for the info of members?  The real test will be whether they come back and drop young in Cwealth Pk next year - I think they will.


Robin et al,

So that means that the bats are back?  Last I heard (just after Floriade I think) there were reports that there weren't any bats there any more?  Very cool thatthey're now breeding here, as well as overwintering here.  I take it that they haven't produced young here in Canberra before?

I feel a wander to Commonwealth Park coming on. <grin>  Does anyone have more precise directions to finding them, or are they pretty obvious? 

Thanks for the info. 

Cheers.
