Daytime Bat Kilwinning
Hello Folks,
I meant share this last week. Captured this Bat flying over the river Garnock just down from the Sawmill bridge. Location is Kilwinning, Ayrshire, Scotland. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...27637&t=h&z=15 Can you ID from my capture please?

From the colouration and the fact that it was flying in daytime I would tend to lean towards Noctule for this one.

On Thursday I saw a Noctule flying over a cottage garden on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. The time was exactly 1PM! I can only assume it was taking advantage of a brief sunny spell. A nearby Stonechat looked equally confused.
