Get ready for an adventure with the bats of the Yolo Causeway at a Bat Talk and Tour! Organized by Yolo Basin Foundation, this summer program offers a chance to get up close and personal with Mexican free-tailed bats while learning about their fascinating lives.
Registration is now open for Friends of Yolo Basin Foundation at the $100 level or higher, and will open to the general public on June 4, 2024. Gather your friends and family for a night to remember.
The evening kicks off with a fun presentation about bats focusing on species at the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area Headquarters. The Talk is followed by a caravan walkie-talkie tour of the Wildlife Area, leading up to the highlight of the night: watching the bats take flight from the Yolo Causeway as they head out to feast on insects.
Other bat-focused activities include Bats and Crafts for the little ones and An Evening with the Bats for families (previously called Bats and Beverages). It’s a great opportunity to learn more about these amazing creatures and their role in keeping the Sacramento Valley ecosystem in balance.
So mark your calendars and join in on the excitement! For more details and registration, check out https://yolobasin.org/battalkandtour/.
