During the 16 week sampling period, 185 gigabytes of acoustic calls were recorded representing 156,021 calls. A total of seven bat species were identified and each species was detected in each of the four habitats. Mexican free-tailed bats making up the majority of the activity. Bat activity was not different (P > 0.05) among habitat types. Bat activity was significantly different (P = 0.004) in May compared to the other months. There was moderate correlation (R2 = 0.59) between temperature and bat activity.Acoustic bat monitors were placed near stream, in prairie, in oak savannahs, and along edge sites in the Cibolo Preserve from May to August, 2017.
