Sleep tight, Battyman...

Description

It is rare, very rare, but some times some (little) bat is seen around our cottage, and as against our usual bats, who live together by the thousand in caves, this species seems to be solitary, and I am unsure on what bat species it may be (Pipistrellus pipistrellus? Barbastella barbastellus? Plecotus auritus?...) and what does it feed of (insects, maybe?...) :P

Anyway, I found this little guy (I could keep its body in the back of my hand) hanging from a white wall outside our cottage, which was a rare place to find a bat, rather than hanging from the inner horizontal wood-beams from the roof. It spend the whole day there, in that position, no matter the noise that we made nearby- it was fast asleep for real X)

He certainly looks contented where he's at. You have one contented, and happy little batty there though. Heart  (and likely an insectivore)
