Katie Whiting has recorded several microbat species in the Dence Park area of Terrys Creek. Species recorders are:
Yellow-bellied Sheathtail Bat (Saccolaimus flaviventris) – listed as vulnerable under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995
Eastern Bentwing Bat (Miniopterus schreibersii oceanensis) – also listed as vulnerable under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995
Gould’s Wattled Bat (Chalinolobus gouldii)
White-striped Freetail Bat (Tadarida australis) – note you can hear this species at night because it calls at low frequencies audible to the human ear
