“…The higher bat activity we observed in the post‐volant period was likely due to females and newly volant juveniles dispersing from their maternity colonies in mid to late summer (Agosta et al 2005). Our finding of higher bat activity in forested wetlands in the post‐volant period is consistent with seasonal variation in bat activity observed in forest regenerating from timber harvests (Wright et al 2021). Our results further demonstrate the importance of considering time of year when developing bat monitoring protocols (Burns and Broders 2015, Pauli et al 2017, Ketzler et al 2018).…”

“…For example, in southern Australia, restoring wetlands through tree removal and vegetation planting increased bat activity (Beranek et al 2021) though activity decreased in restored sites as vegetation height increased. Similar observations have been made in forests regenerating from timber harvest, although bat activity decreased as time since treatment and vegetation density increased (Ketzler et al 2018, Wright et al 2021). Thus, the initial benefits associated with naturally occurring and anthropogenic wetland alteration for insectivorous bats may change in response to changing vegetation structure over time.…”

“…Most European bat species are considered to be specialised on forested habitats for at least one part of their life cycle (Meschede and Heller 2000). In the last few years, impacts of forest management on insectivorous bats in A number of studies, especially from the United States, identified positive effects of management activities such as thinning or clear-cutting on bats , Bender et al 2021, Wright et al 2021. However, even while some thinning practices prove to be beneficial in the short term for e.g.…”
