Discover the joys of nature with the “Evening with Bats” initiative: applications are open

This summer, the Educational Centres of Porto Environment Department organise seven nights to meet bats in several green spaces in the city. The sessions take place every Friday or Saturday at dusk time, between the months of July and October. The first session happens on 9 July at the Viveiro Municipal do Porto (Porto Municipal Seedbed). This will be a one-time visit. Entrance is free but application is mandatory.

Nature provides children and adults alike with enriching knowledge and skills, by experiencing the great outdoors and thus profiting from an array of social, educational and planetary benefits. The Evening with Bats - Noites de Morcegos – is a must-pick event for sure as it will provide the perfect opportunity to know this night creature and dispel myths about this nocturnal flying mammal. For starters, bats are the only mammals capable of flying like birds and their vision is more accurate than that of most humans. Curious already?
