There are bats in the Sydenham Hill Tunnel, buts its never open to the pubic, due to Health & Safety and to protect the bats. Your also unlikely to see the bats if you stood outside the tunnel at sunset, the bats using the tunnel are species that emerge well after sunset. The bat of most significance using the tunnel is Brown Long-Eared. The Youtube video below shows how Brown Long-Eared would hunt in the wood. Video showing Brown Long-Eared hunting Dulwich Park has a bat walk planned for the 11th August, though I'm not sure if the date has been confirmed. Probably need to book through Southwark Council. It will probably be "sold out" very quickly.

You can watch over the internet if your confident of not going over your monthly usage allowance (if you have one forced on you). The qualities similar to bbc's iplayer, not brilliant but better than nothing. The following is the best website for links to video streams. http://myp2p.eu Some will simply play in your browser using your 'media player'. Some streams only work if you install software that helps to download the stream using p2p. The site lists and has the software available for some of the video streams. The only software based video stream I'll use is the well used Sopcast. *Remember to do a search on the internet before installing any software you havent heard of before* But watching the Ryder Cup today (my internet is unlimited) the best video streams didnt need software installed anyway.
