Cyling down towards the canal last near the industrial museam, I look up and a bat is flying just above my my head caught in the light of my head torch, I think the light had attracted insects that were in turn being eaten by the bats
It flew at pace with me for about a good 4 or 5 seconds and then it was gone again, I stopped and had a good scan with the lights, lots of bats diving in and out of the beams of light.
It was amazing to actualy see one on the wing from close up, I have only ever seen that in wildlife docs before now.
