User's notes

We extracted this dead bat from the grille of a car in the Tidbinbilla visitor centre car park. It had been dead for a while. Would be interested in ID.

Sorry, there are no conclusive clues to ID the species in the photo. Would need additional photos and ideally a measurement of the forearm to be able to ID.

I have some other photos if that would help. I have added them.
