Bat Colony Reporting

In New Hampshire two bat species, the little brown bat and the big brown bat, use buildings as their summer roosts. Barns, attics, outbuildings, and even church steeples can provide a summer home to female bats and their young. These groups of female bats and their young are called a "maternity colony". Learning about these “maternity colonies” can give biologists a good idea of how bat populations in an area are doing from year to year. With the occurrence of White Nose Syndrome in New Hampshire, monitoring these colonies is more important than ever.

We are interested in any information you can provide about bat colonies with more than 10 bats.
