Gratuitous Bat Photos

Morgan sent in these photos of bats having been plucked from their roosts and petted by humans. No bats were harmed in the taking of these photos. If anything, some seemed to enjoy having their heads stroked.

These bats are, in order of appearance: 1) a silver-haired bat, 2) a pallid bat, 3) another pallid bat, 4) Myotis californicus, and finally, a bat that looks like a bison with wings and big ears, 5) a myotis bat.

Enjoy.

  1. I love their faces, though it takes a little while for that little "hook elbow finger" to grow on me.

  2. Ahh, bats and vultures. Two very cool, often misunderstood animals. I love them both.

    The others are pretty cute as well. So long as they don't have those weird funky noses.
