Camp of 100 or more bats, quite restless

Hi Helen, It looks pretty smoky in your photos so their restlessness is understandable. I presume these are refugees from another camp site that has been burnt out? I'm thinking this is not a usual camp location?

Yes very smoky from the Potato Point fire. Last year their camp was up beside Hector McWilliam Drive
