Absolutely true. Personally, capturing my first Spotted Bat with Cori Lausen was an *emotional* experience. These are really unique and special little mammals. Life is richer with this kind of biodiversity in our lives. ❤️🦇😍 #BatAppreciationDay

Creatives at the city of Calgary made a set of "weighted" bats with representative wingspans of our nine AB species. They were also giving away wildflower seeds to promote native plantings in city gardens! Remember to be careful with seed mixes to make sure you only have native plants & no invasives!
The University of Calgary helped the city out with a collection of pinned moths to help illustrate what bats eat. A beautiful set of moths - but they do need to add some beetles, flies and mosquitoes to the mix! Any night-flying insect is a potential snack for a bat!
The bat folks at the city created a fun little sorting game - who migrates and who hibernates? Can you guess?
Fun with a light box! The city set up images comparing a bat wing and a human hand. They are the same! Just longer fingers and maybe a few fused metacarpals - but a bat wing is essentially a mammalian hand. The order for bats is Chiroptera which literally means "hand wing".
Friday is #BatAppreciationDay! 🦇
We teamed up with the City of Calgary & Calgary Wildlife Rehab Soc. at #YYC City Hall for bat outreach - connecting with staff who manage parks, buildings, and policy. Great questions, great conversations, & more collaboration ahead to help conserve Alberta’s bats!

Digital artwork depicting Inkstain sitting on a bench next to the viewer, in front of a decently pretty Italian monument (can you guess? :3c). Various other folk litter the background, hanging out. Inkstain talks to you, saying "Sun's set, ready to start the night?"
Happy belated #BatAppreciationDay Yippeee!!!
Since it's late, the bat isn't 100% the focus, but it's still a lovely time you're about to spend nwn
