Family Bat & Biscuit Night
Discover more about the amazing nocturnal world of bats with an evening family-friendly bat talk & walk at WWT Washington.

Start the night with a hot chocolate or juice and a bat themed biscuit while our team tell you all about British bat species with a show-and-tell activity, before we head out for an evening walk to Hollowood and the reservoir. We'll search for bats using hand-held bat detectors to pick up the presence of different species and see what else we can see along the way
