Bat Box Bash! Event Recap

Just last week, we celebrated #BatAppreciationWeek with the FMCP Stewardship team and Urban Park rangers at our Bat Box Bash event! 

Our dedicated volunteers were able to enjoy a small nature walk along our Pat Dolan Trail while learning some interesting facts about bats. Did you know? Bats are natural pest controllers, they can eat up to 1,200 mosquitoes in one hour! The volunteers also came together to build beautiful bat box habitats to support their role in our ecosystem. 

Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who came out to learn about bats and helped with our conservation efforts!

FMCP’s Stewardship Team is supported by generous funding from Con Edison
