Earthwatch Australia Melbourne Microbats overnight eco adventure Nov, Dec 2011 and Feb, Mar 2012

Join an Earthwatch Australia Melbourne Microbats team to discover microbat habitats and nesting locations, conduct night surveys by trapping bats and locating bats with bat detectors, and learn about the threats facing microbats. This year Melbourne Microbats research teams will be treated to a complete dusk till dawn experience sleeping overnight inside the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne – something usually unavailable for the general public – while also being able to enjoy the Ford Fiesta Moonlight Cinema in the gardens while waiting for the microbats to come out.
