BROWN LONG-EARED BAT Plecotus auritus

 

 

 

·         These photographs of a captive Brown Long-eared Bat Plecotus auritus were taken at a special event at which this intriguing little insectivorous mammal was being shown to attendees by a licensed handler. Only two photographs were taken to minimise stress for the subject. The structure and sophistication of their ears is simply fascinating – the wings are rather marvellous too!
