🦇 Day 23 Advent: Brown long-eared bat!
Huge ears (almost body-length!), whisper-quiet echolocation, and a slow, fluttery flight.
Feeds along hedgerows, gardens and woodland edges.
A magical night hunter. 🌙✨

Is there something like birdwatching but for bats? Batwatching?

I sometimes do that at this time, there's like 15-20 bats that fly around my house, they're cool

Jeez,just opened the kitchen door to go see what the cats are doing outside and a bat went straight past my head 🙀. I assume they've been batwatching
