Subject: Hilton Pond North (1 Jul 2026) Bats In Our Trees, Not In A Belfry
Thirty-two tiny teeth, paper-thin wings, and a life spent among the leaves—meet the Eastern Red Bat in Installment #42 of “This Week At Hilton Pond North.” We also offer photos of a Hooded Warbler, nestling Eastern Bluebirds, and a beetle whose wing covers resemble a Turkish rug, as well as our latest banding results (including hummingbirds). Please take a look at https://www.hiltonpondnorth.org/twahpn-20260701.html
Enjoy!

(There are also links to our nature livestream and latest “Deep Dive” podcast.)

Happy Nature Watching!
