Bats!

They are crucial to almost every ecosystem, comprise between 1/5 and 1/4 of all mammal species, and can be found nearly everywhere, but so few of us study them. This project is designed to get as many "Chirobservations" as possible. Whether it's a discernible photo of bats in the evening skies, a diagnostic photo of a bat in hand, or a screenshot of a sonogram from an acoustic monitoring device, please add your observations. Observers are encouraged to participate worldwide.

Invite your friends and colleagues to the project to aid in Identifications, grab your camera and head out into the night.

Happy batting! less ↑
