As this is a new venue for us this year, here are some detailed directions:If you're driving North through Kenilworth town centre: When you get to the clock tower roundabout take the second exit (straight on) and then, with the Holiday Inn on your left, turn right down the side of the Almanack pub. Follow the road round to the right and the Kenilworth Centre is on your left. There is a high mesh fence at the front.
On foot, with the clock tower at your back, walk through the gap in the shops by Lil Greens and the Kenilworth Centre will be in front of you.
Once in the building, the Community Rooms are upstairs (there is a lift).

Bat Social Calls - a talk by Dr Jon Russ

Bats not only use echolocation to navigate, but also use complex calls to communicate with each other.  There is a great deal of mystery of what these calls are used for, some are certainly important in courtship, but what else can these often melodic sounds mean?  Jon Russ will present a talk to help lift the veil.

About Jon:
Jon obtained a BSc (Hons) in Zoology from The University of Aberdeen, followed by a PhD at Queen's University Belfast on the distribution, species composition and vocalisations of Northern Ireland's bats. Jon is currently owner of Ridgeway Ecology Ltd, an ecological consultancy specialising in bats.

He is also the author of “British Bat Calls: A Guide to Species Identification”

Everyone welcome!
