There is a bat in the attic!
First day of April, sunny and freezing outside, Dante and Lauren had a really good day observing after two days of nonstop rain and very strong winds, while i (Yehonatan) stayed in the station to do some tasks, and attend the opening of the new exhibition in the lighthouse, and the opening of Blink aswell. many people attended and it was wonderful, both the exhibition and the cafe are a most go for anyone who is visiting Skagen!
Later Mitte gave the volunteers a tour around the new exhibition, which was really nice and intresting, and afterwards, we all went up the lighthouse for the first time this season.
We came back to a mistery suprise left outside our door, a lovely bad filled with easter\passover gifts and a heart warming card from Rita, wishing us all happy holidays in 4(!) diffrent languages, English, Gernman, Danish, Hebrew. this defenetly made our day and put a smile on our faces.
In the afternoon Lisa came to the station and we made our plans for tomorow together, we expect a good day of ringing after a few days of bad weather, when suddenly we got a phone call from Simon, he tols us there he can see there is a gps tagged bat in the north side of the attic, and we should try see if its there and try to catch it. For our suprise, we found the bat and succesfully trapped it and after having a close look, we set him free back to his roosting place in the attic.
After dinner we visited the top of the lighthouse again, and got to see the light turns on which was really cool, and also alot of stairs for day.
