Well, here we are again. Bear tracks were reported in the Jamestown area by a bat researcher working near the Blue Jay Mine. So it’s time to ensure the backyard compost is buried, food scraps are frozen until garbage day, and windows and doors are secured. Bring down the bird feeders and give our incoming migrants a leg up!
Oh, and about those bats. You will now see that the hoist house at the Blue Jay Mine has been shored up to protect a bat maternity roost. Signage has been posted. Hopefully this will give them some peace and quiet
The Blue Jay Mine area has a number of interesting species using the area. If there is interest in an educational “bat walk” this summer, let me know via email.
