This event asks for (free) RSVP for attendance.
Rainier Beach Urban Farm and Wetlands, Bats Northwest, & Woodland Park Zoo are collaborating for an evening of bat fun for the whole family!
Take part in this free educational event featuring bat-inspired snacks, a family friendly activity, an educational presentation about bat behavior & biology, and how they adapt to our ever changing world; ending the night observing our nightly neighbors as part of the B.A.T community science program.
The BAT program invites YOU to become a community scientist by observing bats right in your own neighborhood. Our goal is to collect data on bat sightings throughout Washington, and your participation makes a difference! Connecting with nature and observing local wildlife is not only educational, but also a wonderful way to appreciate and protect the environment around us.
ASL interpretation will be provided!
It is recommended to wear closed-toed shoes and have a long-sleeved shirt to cover up if it gets chilly at night. Please bring a headlamp and consider putting on bug spray if mosquitos like you.
