Those of you who read some of my previous posts, will know that my wife and I was visiting Monateng on 15 to 16 February. While I was busy braaiing some nice lamb tjops, on the fire, I notice these two critters hiding below the thatched roof of the chalet we were staying in. They were to small bats.
These bats are insect eaters and hunts at night using ultra sound to locate their pray. During the day they rest and sleeps, thus they are not really active.
Unfortunately, I could net get to close and my zoom on my trusty iPhone is not good enough to really get some clear photos, I think it is time for me to invest in a proper camera!!
The video and photos were taken by me with my iPhone at Monateng, just North of Pretoria in South Africa.
I hope you enjoyed the post.

I am afraid of bats, when they fly very low, I think they will sit on my head :)

There is a myth that the bats will get entangled in a persons hair, but I don't think there is any truth in it.

Bats are dangerous animals and I as a person I don't like coming in contact with them what so ever

Thank you for the comment.
I don't think they are really dangerous, specially not these small ones and the fruit eaters. If you google, you will see that even the vampire bats are not dangerous, although there are cases where humans were bitten by them. If they have rabies, you could however get infected.

Luckily they are quite harmless, although I don't really like them, they are a bit gross!!
