Common Pipistrelle Under Lifted Bark

I captured this footage of a common pipistrelle using an endoscopic camera during a ground-level PRF inspection survey of a number of trees in a forest local to where I live in Cheshire. Its important with lifted-bark features not to dislodge it further as it can sometimes be quite brittle. This feature was about 2m from the ground so no climb was required in order to assess it.
