Nature Conservation: Making Bat Shelters

  • Diva Keith

Build Bat Shelters with Grup de Natura Freixe for new biodiversity towers located in the Riba-Roja d’Ebre meander, Sebes Nature Reserve.

A wholesome yet charming project during our time in Riba-Roja d’Ebre was building Bat Shelters for the local Sebes Nature Reserve with Grup de Natura Freixe for their new biodiversity towers. These towers are aimed to house around 300 Pygmy Bats, focusing on rebuilding the current bat population and to restore a nature biodiversity in the area.
We learned these towers cannot be attached to trees, these animals like quiet places to rest ideally on stationary walls or houses, therefor large wooden pillars will be places around the forest. The hides themselves were three tiers of wood each smaller than the one before, layered on top of one another with a thin strip of wood for a close, cosy and intimate resting place.
Afterwards we enjoyed some Lutra beer, a locally produced craft beer made with mint and liquorice root ingredient which grew on the land of the Sebes meander.
