A Cricket and Bats by the Itchen

Went for an an evening walk by the Itchen and saw a Dark Bush Cricket. By the river we saw three kinds of bats. Pipistrelle which are the most common British bat, Daubenton's which are a similar size to Pipistrelle but skim low over the water and Noctule bats which are larger (35cm wingspan) and fly higher up.
