Experience VanDusen’s nocturnal wildlife on this immersive, all-ages guided bat walk led by local bat experts Brandon Weigand and Chloe Meyer. While bat sightings are not guaranteed, participants will learn about local bat species, their habitats, diets, and how they navigate the night, offering a rare, hands-on opportunity to safely connect with the world’s only flying mammal and gain a fresh perspective on these remarkable urban creatures.
