Big Brown Bat
Big Brown Bat
Color: Upper parts rich chestnut brown; ears relatively small, thick, leathery, and black
Size: 8-14 inches
Feeding Habits: most bats feed on insects and fruits in the united states. Normally a forest dweller, but it does not hesitate to utilize attics and crevices in buildings, caves, and crevices in rocks for daytime retreats. Favorite roosts are under the loose bark of dead trees and in cavities of trees. These bats emerge rather early in the evening and feed among the trees, often following a regular route from one treetop to another and back again. Prefer to forage among the crowns of the trees rather than under the forest canopy. Their flight is relatively slow and direct.
