Occupied just 15 days after installation. The network was installed on 18 October 2024; by 2 November, three boxes held three bats. Later inspections documented recurrent use at different times of year.
17 bat boxes across two wetlands: 15 at Fuente de Piedra and two at Laguna Dulce. MuMa combines endoscope inspections and acoustic monitoring to document shelter use and nocturnal activity.
Provisional observations of Pipistrellus bats from 20–21 August 2026, pending individual photo and video cross-checking. One box could not be assessed because of flooding. The total includes four bats in one box at Laguna Dulce. These figures are not a population estimate.
Field monitoring helps guide box maintenance and communicate the value of nocturnal biodiversity. The report completed in 2025 documented 14,628 five-second activity recordings over 34 complete nights at the main station (October 2024–November 2025): activity records, not individual bats. The 2026 acoustic results await expert validation.

We design bat box networks and monitoring programmes tailored to natural areas, wetlands and other settings. Tell us about your site and conservation objectives so we can define the installation, surveys and technical reports.
