I used to have a Mango Tree in my yard and those creatures provrd to be such a nuisance. Their noises and messing up the walls of my house.
Amen they are gone and my mango tree was cut down

I love how you’ve highlighted the positive side of bats! They've really gotten a bad rep since COVID, but it's great to see them in a new light. Bats play such an important role in nature, and your post really helps spread awareness about their benefits. Thanks for sharing!

I had no idea they were this busy while I was asleep at night. Although, I hear them sometimes if I have go out late to check to see if my car is locked in the driveway.

Bats are cool. Sadly we have a fungus around my area that killed so many of them. Have a great day,

A kids' book about bats describes how those little mammels have their babies: instead of being upside down, the mom holds on to a branch with her "hands". When the baby bat is delivering, she grabs it with her back legs. Labor is bad enough without having to keep your newborn from landing on the bottom of the cave!
There's a bridge in downtown Austin where thousands live. It's a local spectacle to go watch them fly out from under the bridge into the night sky. It's also noisy and smelly. Linda in Kansas

Sadly the bat population is way down. I haven't seen a bat for years.

We sure could use more bats here in the summer to get rid of our mosquitoes. Blessings!

I often see bats at dusk when I'm in the pool in the summer. Tells me it's time to go in.
