Week-end de prospections des chauves-souris

Would you like to learn more about the damselflies of the night? Would you like to help the CPIE's research officers carry out scientific monitoring of bats? We're looking for volunteers to help out at the summer bat weekend.

Event from 26 to 28 June 2026

Would you like to learn more about the damselflies of the night? Would you like to help the CPIE's researchers carry out scientific monitoring of bats? Then we've got just the thing! From 26 to 28 June, we're holding our famous chiros été weekend and are looking for volunteers to help us with building visits, counts and acoustic biology.

At this time of year, bat colonies are very active! These small mammals come out at dusk to hunt, and for the volunteers and study officers, it's the perfect time to count them, listen to them and check that the colonies are doing well!

So if you'd like to help out for an evening, a day or several days between 26 and 28 June, please sign up.

Beginners wishing to be trained are of course welcome, and intermediate or expert volunteers are needed! That way, we'll be able to form pairs in the field.

The aim of the weekend is to get people enjoying themselves, getting together and, above all, sharing their experiences!

Practical info:
Friday 26 to Sunday 28 June | various towns around Juigné-sur-Sarthe
