Guided Walk: Bats of Sefton Park
THURSDAY 1 SEP / 7.30–9PM / SEFTON PARK
BOOK TICKETS HERE
Join Andrea Ku for a guided walk of Sefton Park, with a focus on its bat population!
Meeting at the cafe by Eros Fountain in Sefton Park, this guided walk lead by Andrea Ku will take you through Sefton Park to learn about the different bats that call the park their home.
Using a bat detector, you’ll see which areas are home to different species and spot them flying low of the watercourses!
Out of the 16 species of bats that live in the UK, 6 have been recorded in Sefton Park in the last 20 years. These include the Common Pipistrelle, Daubenton and Soprano Pipistrelle – with some that can hear the footsteps of a ladybird on a leaf!
Andrea Ku is the Chair of the Friends of Sefton Park and the founder of B4Biodiversity, a group of people who aim to raise the awareness of urban biodiversity through educational, practical and creative projects, eg. landscape design & building, beekeeping training, horticulture & gardening, arts projects and more. She is also an artist in her own right, taking on a facilitator’s role in her approach to making work.
This walk is taking place outside, please dress for the weather and bring a waterproof! Please wear comfortable shoes which you don’t mind getting muddy.
