Summer Survey Results 2008

2008 was another very successful year for the monitoring programme with at least 968 volunteers taking part in summer surveys. We would like to thank everybody that has helped collect this important information, which enables us to produce population trends for the UK's bat species.

The distribution of this year's volunteers is shown below. Links to survey and species maps can be found at the bottom of this page.
