Monday Haiku: A Mammalian Moment
Though we are 99% avian, we do have a small collection of mammals (not counting staff and volunteers!) including our pair of fruit bats. Because they spend most of their days sleeping and snuggling under their tent, I rarely get to see them, but last week they came out to play. Well... ok... to eat, which is nicely tied to today’s haiku by training specialist Susan Burchardt:

I never thought bats could be cute... but these guys are. Awww!
I'll tell them you said so! I think they are cute too and really love to feed them. They climb down to hang from your hand and eat fruit.
Thanks for looking!
