Geocache Description:

If you have a medium to high clearance vehicle there is a short access road that will get you a little closer to the cache than parking at the road. Do NOT drive into the field ! These roads get very muddy after a rain;especially with all the extra traffic during hunting season.

Bats are an important part of forested ecosystems, deserts, and rangelands and contribute to a region’s biodiversity. Bats exist in many different types of habitats like forests, deserts, cities and swamp lands. Their habitats need to include dark, protected places to hide from predators, sleep during and to hibernate in during the winter.

The majority of North American bat species are insectivorous and serve as insect-controllers and pollinators. They typically consume more than 50 percent of their body with each night, consuming moths, flies, mosquitoes, beetles and other insects. The Brown Bat, one of the most common species, can capture 600 mosquitoes in one hour. Nectar-feeding and fruit bats pollinate more than 130 types of plants.

Forty-five species of bats have been found in the United States and seven of them have been listed as threatened or endangered.
