A northern yellow pup from the same tree where Buffy2 was found in 2019. Her son?

A BANANALAND (thanks Melissa Ingala, Ph.D. 🦇🦠 for that phrase) night of netting last night! Right up until the final net check we had only caught one big brown bat and as we went to take down, this beautiful #northernyellowbat was in the net. Can’t wait to find him today!

Today is the beginning of BAT WEEK, an annual, international celebration of the role of bats in nature that lasts from October 24th through Halloween. batweek.org

First time catching a #northernyellowbat calls for a picture! This was our first catch of the night and I don’t doubt for a second my earrings brought us the good luck 😉🦇💛 (Finally a species other than #eveningbats !😅) Isn’t he just the cutest mini lion #bat ? 🦁🦇

Happy Halloween from the St. Simons Land Trust! 🦇 🎃
