Hyde ParkAs you walk through London’s Royal Parks, you can feel the benefits of escaping the stress of the city and getting some fresh air.

Encapsulating wildlife, history and heritage, the Parks, are some of London’s most vital assets.  But how much do you know about Kensington Gardens?

Guided by the Isis Education Centre team, this is a wonderful chance to walk in Kensington Gardens at night and see at least three different bat species – common pipistrelles, soprano pipistrelles, noctules and if we’re lucky, Daubenton’s bats feeding over the water.

Bat detectors are used so that bat echo-location calls are audible to the human ear. And because you are out in the Park on a summer’s night, owl calls may add to the atmosphere.
