More bats and fox

I went out to check on the bats and keep an eye out for the fox. The bat did its usual route, flying low over me as before. This time I only saw the bat a couple of times.

I noticed the fox down the alley, criss-crossing from one garden to another. However a chap walked up the track from my end and the fox disappeared. I watched for about 10 minutes and no sign of the fox. Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye I noticed the fox slinking past up the far side of the track. It must have been disturbed by the chap walking up the track and the fox must have crossed through a garden to the road and was now doing a reverse walk up the track from my end

More bats

I saw the bat again last night. This time I deliberately went out looking for it. At about 9.30pm I saw a bat flying across the alley way a couple of times.

About 2 minutes later it flew up the track towards me and out and across the road heading west. It may have been a pipistrelle bat. I tried to photograph is but it was moving too fast, hence the nice blurred picture below.

About 10 minutes later another bat (or the same one) flew up the track and over the roof of our bungalow. Another 5 minutes and I saw a bat fly up the track and across our back garden heading south. I then had to go back inside. I am keen to keep an eye out for them again.

Bat

A small bat flew down the side of the house and down the street, possibly a pipistrelle. I have suspected that there have been bats around before but this time it was a definete sighting. The time was 8.20pm
