Hi Radomir,
Bats are amazing creatures. They are truly master of darkness. Well captured shot. Nice note. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Count Dracula in resting mode, eh?
You caught him by surprise and he does not seem to like it, Radomir, so beware of the darkness, ha, ha, ha!
A very good capture of this creature, which, despite its negative image in human psychology, is just one of the denizens of the earth and useful to the environment in numerous ways, I am sure.
TFS.

This is a very good capture of this little "devil" :) You caught excellent details with good use of flash. Your notes are much interesting. I have read a lot about this subject and I think that you did a complete resumé. Thanks :)

Hello Radomir
What a cute bat you found and captured! I find it curious that hunting in the forest they prefer to shelter in human buildings. The note about it and about Dracula is absolutly interesting.
The picture is great, with excellent sharpness and details.
Thank you very much for sharing!
Greetings

Hi Radomir

A lovely shot of this bat - great detail and POV. It also reminds me of what I have in my attic!! They sometimes smell a bit, I would like to encourage them to move elsewhere - but I wont - it is illegal here anyway.

A nice click of a rodent which frightens me only in its speed and its chosen time of evening to appear. These can be speedy and vicious. It appears you have caught it unaware of your intentions. Very good...You need go no closer thank you.

Hi Vlad, erm, I mean Rad :-)

Very pleasant animal in good pose. Slightly scared by light, with very nice details and natural colours. Great note, by the way! If you want to see real Dracula's place check my photo :-)

ooh...I'm not sure I would want this in my attic but it certainly is a great photograph. The flash revealed all the details and his surprise. Nice work. This is a super addition to your bat gallery.

Great shot of this bat Radomir. Getting this shot in his nest like this is pretty incredible. You've got great detail in this sharp shot. Did you set up ahead of time, or just climb up to the attic?

Thanks, John

Hello Radomir. What a wonderful clear picture of the bat. One can see every hair on his fur and wrinkle on the wings. Great picture to study the bat from. Did it feel at all threatened when you photographed it and fly away? You do a wonderful job in teaching us about bats. Thanks so much. Regards, Irmgard

Hi Radomir,
great shot, the master of darkness does not seem to be impressed about being disturbed by the flash ;-).
Very well captured, the details are very nice.

You certainly have a great gallery here Radomir. And this fellow looks so interesting - we only have one bat in NZ (our only native mammal) but I've never seen one.
This looks really interesting - he doesn't look too happy at the light. And I enjoyed reading your bnotes too,
Kia ora

Hello Radomir,
That is one big bat. How close is Sulejow Park to Lodz? I might consider a visit in September. Excellent photo by the way, esp. flash control, even though it looks a bit startled.
Best wishes,
Hakan

Hello Radomir,
Fantastic capture of the Serotine Bat, in Sweden this species being found only in Scania, where it was discovered in 1982. I have never seen it myself.
I wonder if it also hangs upside down when resting?
Very sharp image and excellent use of flash making this a high qualty and valuable contribution to TN.
TFS and best wishes, Ivan

Hello Radomir,
Very fine close capture of this interesting bat in rather an unusual resting position. They are very weird creatures and certainly very fascinating as you so rarely see them.
Very sharp details and good light showing up the colours. Good note too!
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hi Radomir,
Splendid shot of this Serotine Bat. They look so feiry and its eyes says it all - intense and alert. Clear details and impressive sharpness with fine focus. I like your POV to portray it and prefect use of flash light. They truely are the masters of darkness and considered as bad omen, but for us it is another species of nature. Very nicely composed. Kudos.
TFS.

Witaj,

Wspaniały jest ten nietoperz. Wygląda dość grożnie. Nie jestem pewna, czy chciałabym się z nim spotkać. Dzięki za zdjęcie.

Pozdrawiam
