Bats - Eddie

[den]

Eddie has worked out where his food comes from. When I opened the tent I found him sitting on the floor below the zip, looking up at me. Now his growls are mixed in with food-pings.

Grr! Grr! Grrrr!food pingGRR! GRR!food ping GRRR! GRRRR!

Donk flew without hitting anything tonight, but she's still not doing full circuits of the room. She's easier to make fly now. Last week she hung ontp my like velcro. Tonight she was doing little half-flaps.

You can hear food pings? What do they sound like?

They're like a really high-pitched squeak that gets into the middle of your head without passing through your ears.

With some species it's quite painful at close range. The wattle bats can hit 98db. Donk and Eddie are much quieter.

There's a new bat? Did I miss something, or have I just not been paying proper attention?
