We're in process of what's referred to as "downsizing", from a three bedroom two storey detached property with stair lift installed to a two bedroom ground floor flat with a wet room.
In the house the garden's long since got the better of me, burgeoning in its rampant overgrown bliss. In the flat well, even before we get to live in it, the gardening is taken care of consequent of the twice yearly Service Charge.
Here's the thing Patrick: it's the bats that we'll miss; living as we seem to do on a nightly, come every Spring and Summer seasonal sundown, super-flying-highway for each and every self-respecting Pipistrel in our neighbourhood.
Great, as in most genially thought provocative, post, Thank you Patrick.
Yeah! I guess the 'onramp' to this highway is a thermal then? I often see them circling over the town before they approach the pass. Sometimes flapping, sometimes cruising to the heavens like it's no one's business :-D
I wonder if their highway is invisible to them in the way it is to us. Obviously once they're in it, it's known...but when they look in the direction of the highway, are they like 'There it is. Let's go!' Cool think about it. Thanks Patrick!

Wow, Rob. Thanks for sharing this. That super-flying bat highway does sound like a thing to miss!
That’s cool. And then there’s the highways that go UP (thermals). Watching birds travel on those is always a bit envy-inducing.
