Paul will be speaking about his recent research project on woodland ponds and their importance to the conservation status of bats. He will be comparing urban, suburban and rural canals with lots of areas for potential research to take forward.
He will also introduce some roosts in bridges that members of Warwickshire Bat Group will be able to participate in monitoring.
Paul has been with the Canal & River Trust for 12 years and in that time has been able to study many canals, tunnels and buildings with some interesting insights into how they all differ. He says of himself: "I was born an ecologist with an interest in everything and have always had a fascination for water and the wildlife that is attracted to it."
