Bat Talk and Tour
2025-08-28 18:00 - 20:30, 2025-08-27 18:00 - 20:30 | Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area, 45211 County Rd. 32B
Did you know that a huge colony of migratory bats live under the Yolo Causeway during the summer? Join Yolo Basin Foundation for a summertime Bat Talk and Tour to learn all about these amazing and beneficial mammals.
Following a presentation on bat natural history, where you will have the opportunity to see live ambassador bats up close, the group will carpool out to the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area in Davis for a brief tour of the wetlands and rice fields. Then we get in position to watch the “flyout” of the largest urban colony of Mexican free-tailed bats in California. The bats emerge in long ribbons as they head out to hunt for insects for the night.
The whole experience takes about two and a half hours. This is a family friendly event! There is a small amount of walking. Those in wheelchairs or unable to walk may view the bats by car. Please let us know if you have special needs.
Refunding or rescheduling tickets requires two weeks notice and is subject to a $10 administrative fee.
In regards to the recent heat: While it can be very hot in town during the heat of the day, the first hour and a half of this program will take place in an air conditioned room and from your own vehicle during the auto tour. By the time we are outside to view the flyout, it will be nearly sunset. It is typically 10-15 degrees cooler in the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area where we watch the bat flyout.

Come hear some fabulous solo acoustic guitar by Davis musician Kurt Roggli. Kurt has been a member of many local bands such as Akimbo!, Waiting for Bruce, Brother G, Davis Odd Stars, Me and Him, Biscuits and Honey, and others. He performs regularly at the Village Homes Performer’s Circle and enjoys the welcoming and warm reception this venue gives to all the performers, from first-timers wanting to express their budding talent to more seasoned players wanting to try something new or innovative in front of a receptive and attentive audience. In this spirit, Kurt will share a selection of songs (some originals) on acoustic guitar, conveying both his love for the instrument and some of his favorite picking styles.
The Village Homes Performers’ Circle is a free event that welcomes performers of all levels as well as audience members who simply come to enjoy the performances. No tickets or reservations are required. It is held the fourth Tuesday of each month, except December.
The event begins with an open mic from 7:00 to 8:15 pm and concludes with the featured performance from 8:30 to 9 pm. Signups begin at 6:45 for the short performances (less than 5 minutes per act). Chris Pilon is this month’s emcee. The event will be held at the Odd Fellows Hall, 415 2nd Street, Davis. Masks welcome. For information visit https://www.facebook.com/villagehomesperformers/
