S5E49 This week we join BCT member Mark Ferguson who has just released his latest album; Walking With Bats. What does it sound like to go bat detecting? From start to finish, this question has underpinned Walking with Bats. Mark's main goal throughout the album's development has been simple: to transport listeners directly to the field, placing their ears where his are so they can experience the excitement of bat detecting through their own headphones.  

• Find the album on Mark's website or here on Bandcamp
• Read Mark's blog on the BCT website
• Want to find out more about bat detecting? Take a look at our guide.

Google have announced they are discontinuing their app so we recommend making the switch to an alternative podcast app.

Support the Show.

Please leave us a review or star rating if your podcast app allows it because it helps us to reach a wider audience so that we can spread the word about how great bats are. How to write a podcast review (and why you should).
