Hello, Lola. These bat photos are fantastic. Can you give us the name of the photographer, and the person who decided on the identification of each of the species. Then we can have a proper record of them for future reference.

Hi Lola, was the ID provided to you by Bats in Backyard Citizen Science Project, not Bruce Thomson?

No neither, I sourced the info online but I will get in touch with Bats in Backyards and see what images they have that we can use. I'll be in touch.

Hi Lola and Michael,

I have been meaning to reach out to you on these records, we are hoping to include a “Verify by” attachment option soon (so you could just upload the pdf) but in the interim could you send through a copy of your report to me Lola?
