Meet the man who has spent 20 years transforming his garden into a haven - for bats.
Ross Baker, 66, has long been fascinated with the flying mammals - and sees himself as their PR representative as they get such a bad rap.
He has spent hours installing boxes, sculptures and a pond in his large garden in Weybridge, Surrey, so bats can pop in for a rest.
Though the grandfather-of-four welcomes all wildlife into his garden, he admits he isn't such a big fan of cats - which regularly injure bats by taking swipes at them.
