  1. A couple of bats were dive bombing insects in the back garden tonight just before it got dark. I grabbed my old 7Dmkii and a 70-200mm lens and even though I had to push the limits of exposure to get something half decent as well as in focus, I think these are pretty decent considering how fast they were moving and changing direction.

  6. Good morning everyone 🌞 I'm up early with the parrots today, and the bats, which have finally arrived 🎉 We were getting worried there for a bit as they were late getting here this year, but as you can see from the video they are finally here for their breeding season 😊

    Ziggy had settled into my hand for a wee cuddle after biting me hard on the neck and hand just a moment ago for what transgression I haven't a clue. It's hormones time and she's definitely worked up, one moment as sweet as can be and the next a little green demon. 🥴 I often wonder if the big dinosaurs underwent the same hormonal changes. Can you imagine, a bunch of T-Rex running around ripping lumps out of one another just for looking at each other the wrong way! 😁

    Plans for today are solid crochet after having very little time yesterday again due to a hold up with Ziggy's meds that has us waiting at the vet for ages. I *will* finish the competition toy this week so help me!

    Have a very lovely day, whatever you get up to 🤗

  10. 🦇🌿 In #Franklin, #NZ, a #community-led group called Finding Franklin Bats teaches landowners, #kids, and #Indigenous Māori volunteers to track critically #endangered #pekapeka (long-tailed #bats) using detectors, radio telemetry, and harp traps.

    With just 180 volunteers and a small budget, they’re filling gaps left by underfunded #government #research, catching 100 bats this year alone.

  12. The bats last night were spectacular. I kid you not I saw one the size of a raven in the garden. Dozens swooping and dipping and maneuvering throughout the West garden, nibbling on all the odd flying insects buzzing around.

    I am so curious where the bats roost during the day - it cannot be on our property so they must fly down from the mines in the mountains. I very much wish to make some bat boxes or similar encouragement for them, they're my favorite wildlife I think.

  13. Compilation of Detox Doodles!

    These animals are from my 100-day journey to swap scrolling for sketching: joyousjoyness.com/pages/detox-

    My favorites are the Kiwi Birds and the Beavers (also the anteater hug)!

  18. Los machos del murciélago de la fruta de Dayak (Dyacopterus spadiceus) y el zorro volador enmascarado de Bismarck (Pteropus capistratus) producen leche por sus pezones. Sus pezones son más pequeños que en las hembras y producen menos leche. No se sabe si amamantan o es una galactorrea por consumir fitoestrógenos. 📷Michigan Science Art/Bird Explorers #murcielagos #bats

  23. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🦇🍼 A six year old Livingston fruit #bat recently gave birth while hanging from her thumbs with her pup hanging from just the umbilical cord.

    The 2024 event at the #Northumberland #Zoo marked the first time the birth of this #endangered #animal was caught on camera. With only 1,200 remaining in the wild, these are among the rarest #bats in the world.

  39. New paper out! 🦇

    We published data from 2015 to serve as a baseline from that time, before white-nose syndrome had spread across the continent. 194 North American bat experts assessed 21 threat categories. Pathogens and microbes ranked as the biggest threat across most regions. Habitat loss related threats also ranked high. Will be interesting to see what may change/stay the same in the future.
