MANIC MONDAY LINK
There is not much choise to write about the word which Mo has given us for today. I am sure he must have his head full of bats, pumpkins, witches, graveyards and skeletons for the forthcoming Halloween where bats play a big role. I thought writing about a baseball bat, but I never had one and nobody plays it here around, I don't bat my eyelashes anymore to seduce (please note the anymore) and won't go bat with anybody. Therefore the only thing which remains is the famous BAT !
I found some pictures of this charming beast in the net.
This is a drawing of a certain german Ernst Haekel who was an animal illustrator and named this"Artforms of Nature". I can now understand that the poor bat is used for Halloween purposes !
but they also can look quite decorative, these wings are pretty !
They eat insects ! Here is one eating a moth. For those who have moth problems, hire a bat !
and isn't that cute how they look to hide in warm places when it's cold ?
Bat babies are really very tiny !
And as these poor animals are so strange looking like flying mice or rats they scared people ! They made them to pets for witches and vampires, Dracula had not a dog but bats and they serve now for Halloween. Here are a few examples !
