Be part of an exclusive bat experience with Yolo Basin Foundation’s own bat expert Corky Quirk. You’ll learn about their natural history and biology and even get an up-close look at live bats. The group will meet at the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area Headquarters and caravan to the bat viewing site in the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area. To make this event extra special, the Talk portion of the program will take place at the viewing location. We are often joined by a rice farmer or cattle rancher who shares their experience about wildlife friendly farming and ranching in the Central Valley. As the sun sets, you will enjoy drinks and hors d’oeuvres as the group awaits the spectacular fly-out of hundreds of thousands of Mexican free-tailed bats! Only 6 pod squares available per event!

NOTE: You will also have the opportunity to sign-up for a virtual Talk that you can watch at one of the designated times indicated on the registration site, which will take place a different day than the event.
