We will be experimenting with different camera positions. Currently the camera points down the driveway where bats fly on dry nights.
This camera is situated on the side of a house located 600 feet above sea level on the slopes of "Finnararagh" in County Kerry. The audio feed is from a bat detector located near the camera which is set to 45 kHz.
We have seen several species of bats - some very small, others quite large. We also have lakes and a river nearby.
The camera will run sporadically for several weeks until it is installed permanently. It will then be available every night.
