Observer: Paul Lauenstein

Observation Date: 11/12/12

Observation Time: 5:30 p.m.

Observation Location: Gavins Pond Dam

Common Name: Big Brown Bat

Scientific Name: Eptesicus fuscus

Comments: New England has little brown bats and big brown bats. Little brown bats are only found in New England in summer. Since these bats were observed in mid-November, they are presumably big brown bats. Bats fly fast, so getting these photos was not easy!
