  1. I have been disappointed this entire summer to see so few bats here so seldom. We are in a very woodsy community for them. I know how serious their decline is.

  2. Back in FL days, the Brevard Zoo: an amazing bat display. So much understood, so valuable actually, and fascinating! Yet of course, still good for Halloween Horror!!!

  5. Bats are indeed good: useful, hard-working and not a danger. Long may they rule the night.

  7. We occasionally get bats flying around here. I think they come from the village church tower.

  10. Those panels cracked me up. I don't know which is my favorite, though the firefly gag might be the one. LOL Bats are amazing and often, in my opinion, cute, especially the fruit eating flying foxes.

    PS Thanks to you, I just learned that most Old World bats lack the ability to echolocate (!) and compensate with well developed eyesight.
