Heat vision, color vision, night vision. Discover the rods and cones of bat eyesight in our latest blog. Believe it or not, some bats can probably see better than you! batcon.org/blind-as-a-bat…

Happy #Baturday This is Raven, a pipistrelle #bat found at University of Glasgow last weekend. She's flying brilliantly now, so I'll be releasing her tonight. Give her a wave if you see her zooming around Kelvingrove park! πŸ¦‡

The normal heart rate of a Noctule #bat (which we have in Scotland) varies between 6 & 900 bpm ❀️ I wonder if the cardiac team at NHS Golden Jubilee have ever had to follow their patients in an aeroplane to monitor them! mpg.de/22168023/0704-…

Happy #baturday I've spent a week in a holiday cottage in #Dumfries and #Galloway where we counted 79 Soprano pipistrelle #bats emerging from their maternity roost in the eves! πŸ¦‡β€οΈπŸ¦‡

Meet Riya, a Soprano pipistrelle #bat from Eaglesham, near #Glasgow She was caught by a cat so needs a bit of TLC before she's fit for release. I think she looks like she's auditioning for the spaghetti scene in Lady & The Tramp πŸ˜†
