Releasing an Eastern Bent-winged Bat after processing on a recent project that I was honoured to be involved with. These obligate cave breeding bats are listed as vulnerable to extinction in NSW.

**Sound on** Ever wondered what a swarm of Little Bent-winged Bats (Miniopterus australis) sounds like? I recorded these males with a @TitleyScientif1 Anabat Walkabout during a recent exclusion project. Music to my ears on #MicrobatMonday #wildoz
Check out this take-off by an Eastern Forest Bat (Vespadelus pumilis) being released after I finished processing her. Bats are amazing! 💜🦇💜

#microbatmonday brings the banana #pipistrelle (Neoromicia nana), named for their habit of roosting in banana leaves.
The males make long calls with up to 8 syllables when encountering other males; 2 individuals may engage in ultrasonic vocal duels

This weeks species #MicrobatMonday is Kitty's Hog-nosed bat (Craseonycteris thonglongyai). This tiny little guy is the worlds smallest #microbat, and arguably the worlds smallest #mammal, weighing in at just two grams!

Check out some incredible sound clips of the chatty, carnivorous #ghostbat below!
(FYI our #microbatmonday feature today is actually thought to be a prey item of the ghost bat!😬)
This #threatenedspeciesday, experience what it's like to be a bat on the wall in a #ghostbat roost. Many of their social calls are predominantly within human hearing range and they have a lot to talk about! #WildOz
