Daubenton's Bat
This is a small species of bat, identifiable by its pinkish-brown face and large, furry feet, designed to grab prey from the surface of the water. The bats' preferred habitat is woodland, often close to the water, where colonies can sometimes hold several thousand individuals. In summer they roost here or in house attics while from September to April they hibernate in humid caves, tunnels and cellars. Their diet consists of small flying insects such as mosquitoes, gnats and moths.
