Tomorrow, I present at my first ever international conference in Cairns. I’ll be speaking about how we use artificial habitat for insectivorous bats in our urban spaces at the @ibrc2025.bsky.social See you soon Cairns!!!

All week, I’ve been staring at a patch of under utilised #urban #greenspace and I feel a bit of #guerrilla #gardening might be needed. Thank you #Melbourne and #ESAus2024 for an inspiring week.

This afternoon I’ll speak about my research on #bats, #boxes and #hollows at the #Habitat by #Design symposium at #ESAus2024

They’re small, super quick and they only come out at night, so it’s no surprise that many of us don’t realise #insectivorous #bats are part of our #urban lives. I’ll be talking about the use of #artificial #habitat to support their communities on Thursday at #ESAus2024

Postgrad day at #ESAus2024 complete.
Have I been before? No.
Would I recommend it to postgrads? ABSOLUTELY!!!!!

Next week I tick a personal milestone when I present at #ESA24, the annual conference for the Ecological Society of Australia. I’ll be speaking about #artificial #habitat and #design considerations when supporting insectivorous #bats. #hollows #urban #biodiversity
