Title: Post bat (animal) pictures here!
Post by: Shiroi Koumori on February 06, 2016, 01:29:59 AM
I know you guys are already aware of the Honduran white bat (http://castlevaniadungeon.net/forums/index.php/topic,8205.msg183068.html#msg183068).

So I present another bat. Introducing the Painted Bat (Kerivoula picta):

This is the first image of the series:

I have to share this sequence of photos of a flying fox.  It's adorable, and it reminded me of Delilah - Gabriel's pet bat in a couple of LoS fanfics I'm a fan of, Orionali's 'The Progeny', and Eiahmon's 'Blood Is' (Eiahmon borrowed Delilah from Orionali). 

Less cute, but still rather cute, is this baby Goblin bat.  To me, it looks like it should be a resident in Castlevania.

I can't finish this post without sharing this cute video of Lil' Drac.

Here's a white bat trying to fit in with its fellow bats.

With those big eyes they almost look like chiwawas.

Awwwwwww!  Poor little darlings.  Bat burritos are adorable though. 

Here are some more videos.  These first two are of 'Old Joe's Mine' at Longleat Safari in the UK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYC8RUBGAVA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYC8RUBGAVA) , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7vYOdxpq-U (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7vYOdxpq-U) .  It was so good that when I got the chance to visit there, I went through the bat cave twice.  The bats were extremely cute.

Here's another very cute rescued baby bat video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMh8-htFRhw (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMh8-htFRhw) .  Meet Ruby.

Ruby is so cute  :'(

I found a video about a species of bat that may be responsible for inspiring a local legend in the Philippines . The legend is grotesque but the bat is cute despite its size!

I saw that as well; I almost posted it.  Cute bat! :)

Bats are so cute.  I love it in the Summer when I sit at my living room window and watch the bats flying around in the early evening.  I have one of Kambriel's bat pillows: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/kambriel?section_id=14615418&ref=shopsection_leftnav_5 (https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/kambriel?section_id=14615418&ref=shopsection_leftnav_5) , in a crushed black cotton velvet.  It's so cute!  It had a twin, but my ex ran off with it. T_T

Resurrecting the cute bat photos/videos thread with Shiroi's permission again! :D  Please post more bat videos and piccies.  I had a wonderful the last before last in which an adorable grey fuzzball of a bat decided to fly into my room and sleep in my hair while I was in bed.  When I got up, he wouldn't leave me alone, and was squeaking for my attention.  I blame watching the video I've linked below the other day.  I was very sad the next morning when I woke up, because the lil' ball of floof wasn't real. :(

Yup, I also saw that recently, X.  Bats are terrifying, vile creatures.  Ones that you want to cuddle and have a flock of as pets.

Bats are this animal that has a cute head but once you see its skeletal body, you're all like "ugh! get that thing away from me!"  :-X
