#WABNet team in Oman finished our first sampling trip. The site was an underground water channel (falaj) dug > 3,000 years ago, but also roost for 2 bat species.
ALT Looking down into the falaj. Note the two small openings in the floor, that is where the bats were flying out of and a tricky place to put mist nets to catch them.
ALT Khalid Hikmani covering one of the openings to the falaj, turned out to be quite successful at capturing bats.
ALT One of the captured species, Asellia tridens (in reference to the three upward projections of the nose leaf).

Congrats on the recent pub! WABNet partners and myself been recording acoustic calls from many of the bat species across Western Asia during these sampling trips, we’re up to a little over a 1,000 recordings and hope to deposit in ChiroVox after we finalize analysis.
