You are invited to join the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency, and East Tennessee State University for an evening of bat presentations and a mist netting demonstration. Bat themed activities will begin at 6:30pm. Bat experts will discuss general bat ecology and endangered bat species in Unicoi County. If the bats cooperate, we will capture bats in mist nets and demonstrate how biologists handle, measure, and identify bats.
Guided hatchery tours will be offered at 4:30 and 5:30. Additionally educational speakers will be present to discuss plants and pollinators in the hatchery gardens.
