11th Annual Mist Net Event

Mist Net Event 2014(c)J.P. Coleman State Park in Tishomingo County was the setting for the MBWG’s 11th Annual Mist Net Event.  Twenty people participated in two nights of mist netting on and adjacent to the park on July 29-30, 2014.  A total of 34 bats were captured, including eastern red bat (9), southeastern myotis (5), eastern pipistrelle (tricolored bat; 3), and evening bat (1).  During the day, participants hiked at Tishomingo State Park, conducted bridge checks for bats, and networked with wildlife professionals from around the state.
