Lecture: Native Bats of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park
Speaker: Don Endicott
Don is a volunteer naturalist with a special interest in bats and bat research. He records bat echolocation sounds and submits them to the San Diego Natural History Museum’s acoustics collection, as well as for research and analysis in commercial bat software. Don began conducting this acoustic research on the park’s bat population in early 2020, following a fire in Borrego Palm Canyon. If time and conditions permit, he will lead the group outdoors after the lecture to see if he can detect the calls of active bats. At the ABDNHA Library. GP $12, M $10, V $8.
