The above was taken in Breathing Cave in Bath County, Va. You can see the white fungus around the nose of a bat in the middle of the hibernating cluster.

There are a number of Websites out there with good information on white-nose syndrome.

Let’s start with some sites focusing on bats and WNS in Virginia: Click here for the DGIF press release from a couple of weeks ago confirming WNS in Virginia…and here for some info on WNS in Va. from the Department of Conservation and Recreation.

The National Speleological Society maintains a number of related links. Click here for their WNS page.

A good primer on the history and spread of WNS, as well as some relevant links and videos, can be found at batmanagement.com by clicking here.
