the ewt assess trees from the ground prior to marking them up and giving us the spec and GPS coordinates. We then assess the tree during the climb and any cavities are retained. Any high scoring habitat trees are passed over to EECOS, who do a survey. Obviously, some high scoring trees still have to be removed if they are a high risk to the public...this is also determined by EWT/EECOS. I've done lots of bat-surveys for EECOS and have yet to see a bat...but we did find a hybernaculum after poking a camera into a hollow field maple in Hatfield Forest...its a good way of checking a tree prior to felling if you havent got an endoscope! 

Picked up a very useable endoscope from Aldi for about £40 a few weeks ago. Give me a shout if you want to give it a try. :)
