You decide!

Happy BaturDay!!! Perception is not always reality. Bats often get a bad name from bad perspective......example 👇
"A big golden-crowned flying fox, a large fruit-eating bat native to the Asian archipelago, is seen in the shot. Although the flying mammals may have wingspans of up to 5ft5in, which is significantly taller than the average female height , bats only reach a height of around a foot. However, with some good forced perspective photography, such as that used to ‘prop up’ buildings like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the bats might appear much larger than they are – as in this example." ~ Hasan Jason.
This lovely creature eats only fruit and its body is only 1ft tall but a photo from the right (or wrong) angle has it looking like a terrifying creature from some Steven King novel.
Hey there@mightbbi I love everything about this submission! 💜Especially the extra attention to detail. Thank you so much for sharing it with @thattattedchic74 and I today.🤗😘
Happy Bat-urday 🦇☠️

What do dogs slam besides salmon on serendipitous Saturdays?
they also slam berries, but it's not as fun to say
