From Conserve Wildlife: The Summer Bat Count was created in 2003 by the Conserve Wildlife Foundation and the state's Endangered and Nongame Species Program (ENSP). This volunteer project relies on New Jersey residents to tell us where the bats are. So if you know of a place where bats roost in the summertime - like an attic, barn, bat house, church, or tree - then we'd love to hear from you!

We've had bats along the Rancocas Creek in western NJ for about 20 years. We think they roost under a nearby bridge. Recently one decided to roost inside our house, but we removed it and released it outside without harm. They are very interesting creatures and great fun to watch in the evening.
