Often associated with darkness, witches and black magic, bats are a subject of myths and delusions which expose their harbingers of a trouble living in night. Though people often think that bats are blind because they hunt only at night, actually all species of bats can see though their sight is poorly developed. To compensate this shortcoming they have developed excellent sense of smell and hearing, and can use echolocation and a hydrolocation for orientation and hunting in night. They possess so exclusive system of a sound location that they often hear better, than sonars of a military class that it is surprising for such little animals.

muy hermosos, gracias a ti y @steemit por tu presentacion.

Thanks for the information @bigshot.

I did think they were totally blind and only relied on smell and echolocation.

That last photo is awesome. It looks like it's up to no good...

Bat information, but baby bat is very cute.

Thank for good information ~^^

That's pretty cool turning the photo upside down to make the little guy look like he's walking. I restored an old house between 2005 and 2008. A couple of times a bat found his way into the living space late in the evening when I was working. It's impressive how fast they walk on their little wingie limbs.

so beautiful this animal
