MAJOR NEW SPECIES - Lesser Horseshoe Bat

I know that Lesser Horseshoes are in the area - there is a big roost about three miles away but I hadn't even detected Lesser Horseshoes with my, admittedly fairly crude, bat detector. However I was in the shed, wondering again about the extent of the bat droppings in there so I glanced up and right above my head were a couple of Lesser Horseshoes. They are an outstanding bat whether in flight or hanging brilliantly and stylishly when roosting. There was a professional photographer on site at the time so he helpfully took a quick picture for me. Brilliant or what?
