I told Lexi I look cuter wearing this than her...so I had to provide proof! She made it for the current Suicide Dollz round!

Just in case you've forgotten,,, Well, I've just found out that this was two days ago, while I visited their colony only yesterday. There is also The (more appropriate I guess) International Bat Night in August.

Anyway, I've chosen one shot (that does not require parental guidance) to mark this occasion.

The Bat Falcon is a widespread small falcon of forest and clearings in the Neotropics. It occurs from Mexico south to northwestern Peru and, east of the Andes, northern Argentina. It is dark slate gray above, with an obvious white throat, black-and-white barred breast, and orange lower belly and thighs. Bat Falcons can be distinguished from the similar and sympatric (but much rarer) Orange-breasted Falcon (Falco deiroleucus) by their smaller size, more compact structure, narrower white barring on the lower breast, and more restricted orange on the upper breast. Bat Falcons generally hunt around dawn and dusk at forest edge or over the canopy, often along rivers or road cuts, or at the edges of small crop fields. As the name implies, they feed on bats, but also prey on birds and insects (mostly aerial). They nest in adopted cavities, on cliffs, or on man-made structures and defend their territory aggressively. doi.org/10.2173/bow.batfal1.01

Every evening thousands of bats fly out of Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico's main entrance at or near sunset. One of those amazing wildlife experiences. They continue to exit the cavern for 1 to 2 hours.

 

Happy Halloween!

In the high hazy afternoon along the Columbia, C RWMCEC0 53A moves west along the Fallbridge Subdivision.

With recent rumours about the future fete of this beautiful 747-SP this photo shows 'BAT' just moments before a big rainstorm taxing back to its hangar after arriving late one Sunday afternoon. Photo taken at Bournemouth Hurn International Airport (BOH/EGHH) on the 15th February 2015.

One of the most unusual flowers we saw on our recent visit to Kauai. The bat flower (Tacca chantrieri) is native to southeastern Asia, but thrives in Hawaii's tropical climate. It may be grown as a houseplant in colder climates.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Fruit Bat Falls, located in Australia's Apudthama National Park on the Cape York Peninsula, is named for the distinctive wing-like shape of the rock formation over which the water flows. The falls have no known "fall" in the historical sense, but have been a popular and well-regarded natural attraction for travelers and 4WD adventurers for decades, offering safe, croc-free swimming.

Not normally how I spend my evenings but this was great fun and a challenge. We were in pitch black other than a small torch light being used to highlight the flower that had been sprayed to attract the bats. It was a job to sense the presence of the bat because they were in and out so fast if you hit your shutter when you caught a glimpse you would be too late. Hearing and instinct were much more important than your eyes. I didn't actually know what I had captured until I could lighten the images in Lightroom.

From Wiki: The bat falcon inhabits tropical forest. It favors unbroken mature forest but also occurs at the forest edge, in gallery forest, on wooded savanna, on cleared land with some remaining trees, and even in suburban and urban areas. In elevation it mostly ranges from sea level to about 1,700 m (5,600 ft) with a single record in Bolivia at about 3,250m .

Bat falcons perch conspicuously on high, open snags, from which they launch aerial attacks on their prey. They also hunt in sustained flight. Most hunting is around dawn or dusk and often continues well past sunset. Their diet is eclectic; they hunt bats, birds (such as swifts, swallows, hummingbirds, parakeets, tanagers and small water birds), small rodents, snakes, lizards, frogs, and large insects such as dragonflies, butterflies, moths, grasshoppers, true bugs, beetles, and hymenopterans. In most areas vertebrates contribute the most to biomass consumed, varying from 66% to 96% in various studies, and birds made up between 32% and 85% of the vertebrates. Invertebrates dominate numerically, and young are fed large numbers of them. Bats generally contribute less than 14% of prey biomass but some pairs seem to specialize in them.

Came across this bat, but not sure what type it is, it tested the Sony just looked it up and think its a Common Pipistrelle

While hiking around Owachomo Bridge area in Utah, something passed by me and seemed to be captured by the grass sticking out of some rocks nearby. My first thought it was some piece of trash blowing around, which would have been disappointing as trash should not be loose in the Utah desert.

 

But then I looked closer and realized that 'trash' was actually a bat. I did not have my long lens handy at this time, so approached slowly with the 24/105 extended to 105mm.

A leaf which has seen Better Days, on a walkway in Hermann Park, The shadow is a selfie, which normally I would avoid, but I really needed to catch this in a few seconds, on the run at the end of a beautiful day. In fact on one of my Better Days!

 

Yet another instance of a Barnett Newman Zip coupled with botanical jetsam &/or a topological equivalent of a disc—probably not the first reading that popped into your mind.

 

For #BetterDays #FlickrFriday and also “Signs of the Season” for the Flickr Lounge. Unaccountably refused to upload—even after export to jpg—so I’m posting a screen dump instead with time and location corrected to the original. The geotag shifted by a few meters in the process.

 

Happy Flickr Friday!
