Meet the Bats
Learn about the widely misunderstood threatened species, the Grey-headed Flying Fox, as part of Wellington Shire Council's Parks Week.

The bats have returned to the treetops surrounding Lake Guyatt and Lake Guthridge, and Wellington Shire Council is committed to community education around Grey-headed Flying Foxes to improve understanding and appreciation of the species.

Attendees are encouraged to meet at Nakunbalook Environmental and Cultural Education Centre for a short, educational presentation about Australia's largest native bat and the crucial role it plays in the health of the bush as a major pollinator. This will be followed by a short stroll around the surrounding bush with an eye turned to the canopy.

No bookings required!

Nakunbalook’s Grey-headed Flying Fox display is open daily 11am-1pm until Sunday, February 5. Lynne and Chris from Moonshadow Flying Fox Rescue will be on hand to share rescue stories and answer any bat-related questions.
