The Plan

My plan for the project was to

  • construct the bat houses
  • coat the houses to their appropriate shade
  • dig holes for the posts and bat houses 
  • drill the bat houses on the posts
  • place the posts in the holes
  • reinforce the posts with cement and dirt
The bat houses will draw the attention of bats and provide them shelter from predators. The bat houses will be mounted on a post to ensure safety for the bats, and the Willow Water Hole has many water sources and plants that provide the bats with many resources.

Execution of the Plan

My team and I constructed and coated the bat houses in October, and after receiving the final supplies, my team and I met again on December 23, 2017 to actually dig the holes and place the posts at the Willow Water Hole. Luckily, we had very good weather to work in and had help from the Willow Water Hole staff to supply the tools and cement. It was a very productive day and everyone felt accomplished once we finished.
