New Bat Arrival at Clayton Wood

We are delighted to find out that a Soprano Pipistrelle Bat has taken residence at one of our Bat boxes located at the grounds.

Pipistrelle Bats are one of the smallest Bat species in the UK and are crevice dwellers. Soprano Pipistrelles tend to favour riparian habitats, such as lakes and wet woodlands, where there is also semi-natural woodland or treelines, so the presence of the pond, drainage ditch and wetter areas on our site and being adjacent to woodland are favourable for this species. The Bat is likely to be using the box as a pre-hibernation roost, whilst it is feeding up ready for hibernation.

We both decided we would like a woodland burial, where from the afterlife, we could commune with nature. Over…
