Fruitbat died of natural causes. Definitely a male. Flies got to him so I had to bury. RIP little fella.

Hello !

As the title say, i want to learn more about bats and would love some documentaries.

Would you have any suggestions ?

They can be in french or english (or with subtitles in one of those languages).

Thank you for your help !

Evenings are nice because you can count how many bats you have, but mornings are so much better!

Hi, I'm aiming to install a house on a pole. I'm in the US. What is the easiest and cheapest way to accomplish the set up? Is there a guide perhaps? I will be zip tying it my existing 3 ft chain link fence post.

Art Flying Fox, Vincent van Gogh, Oil on Canvas, 1884

Post image

Thought this community would appreciate this lesser-known masterpiece. Painted during his Nuenen period, Van Gogh used a stuffed megabat (flying fox) specimen likely borrowed from a private regional collection.The painting accurately reflects the distinct biology of these megabats (family Pteropodidae), known for their large, dog-like faces, prominent eyes adapted for excellent vision, and the absence of echolocation. Van Gogh intentionally placed a light source behind the taxidermy mount to capture the translucent, glowing quality of its thin wing membranes (patagium) against the dark background.

Current Collection: Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam
