Bats Flying in the Sky

When I was in middle of taking something in the wood, I looked up, and I saw bats were flying. They did that because they were probably disturbed by something around the wood or they noticed something coming up. So, seeing them on air, I decided to aim them which I was able to catch some of them during flight. Bats are not bird, they are mammals that have ability to fly, and being said, they are only featherless creature that can fly, amazing! Bats belong to a group of animals called Chiroptera (Kir-op-tera), which means "hand wing."

Look closely at the structure of a bat's wing, and you'll see why! They used to fly when they feel threat or swooping through the sky at dawn and dusk hunting for insects as the primary food source. This trick requires special skills, like echolocation and amazing aerial acrobatics. Frankly, that was my first time capturing bats flying in the sky.

Bats are the only mammal capable of true flight. Bats use flight for capturing prey, breeding, avoiding predators, and long-distance migration. Bat wing morphology is often highly specialized to the needs of the species. Source
