Bats: An Illustrated Guide to All Species | Marianne Taylor

As #batweek comes to a close, I thought I'd highlight a few of the coolest species of the over 1,300 we know of.
1. Hammerhead bat: Male vocal cords are about 3x larger than female, and they have large resonating chambers on their faces. Females appear more like a typical megabat.
2. Honduran White Bat constructs “tents“ out of understory plant leaves by strategically cutting the leaf ribs with its teeth; it roosts in these tents during the day ↩

TieDyeDude 3. Rufous Horseshoe Bat. Look at that scrunchy little face! It reminds me of Bugsy the gangster from Looney Tunes. The wrinkles help the bat better receive and interpret signals from echolocation.
4. Bulldog bats have cheek pouches for storing food that look like bulldog jowls when empty. Their primary food is fish, and they use echolocation to “look“ for ripples in the water. 6d

Seabreeze_Reader Really interesting 🦇 info. I plan to dress like a bat when handing out candy but it'll be more like the Dracula cartoon version. 6d

1. I teach first grade so yes! I‘m thinking of going as a bat like Stellaluna.

2. Currently reading The Southern Book Club‘s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix and it‘s pretty darn good so far!

Thanks for asking @TheSpineView !

#ReadAway2024 #Series

This is a cute children‘s book (part of the Bats series) with an autumn & slightly spooky (it‘s bats) 🦇🦇🦇 vibe so I‘m counting it for #HauntedShelf. I‘m also using it for the #BookScavengerHunt #Luck prompt as these book-loving bats get lucky when a library window is left open & they get to spend the evening at the library. .

Read during the readathons listed in comments below. Go Team #Flerken 👻

A bat basically screams its head off all night to find its food via echolocation. Luckily, most of it is too high pitched for humans to hear 😉

PageShifter I can only imagine what it would be to hear that 🙈 We have had a common cuckoo near us two years now and it's hard to sleep when you here that constant “cuckoo-cuckoo-cuckoo“ 😄 Luckily they do that only a short period (early summer) 2w

Eggs Thankfully 😱 2w
