Today's Bat: Silver-Haired Bat
We're back! Fulfilling the other half of this ask, let's review the classic, the ubiquitous, the beautiful... Silver-Haired Bat!
Tumblr media
Environmental Impact: When you look at the Silver-Haired Bat, the Lion King's "Circle of Life" should play in your head. These frosted beauties are so enmeshed in the ecosystem of their wide North American range, a study referenced by ADW cites their worth at around $3.7 billion dollars of pest control. Not only are they excellent insect-eaters, they're an important prey source for predators like skunks, owls, and hawks. Unfortunately, this enmeshing has also lead to the species' several specialized illnesses; specifically, several kinds of mites, and a Silver-Haired Bat exclusive strain of rabies.
🦇🦇🦇🦇/5
Beauty: Wow, I love a Silver-Haired Bat. The dark body reminiscent of the cartoonists' ideal bat... their silver-tipped coats... their little lamb ears... their noses that put me in mind of my pet hedgehog... After a few weeks away, looking at this guy is like taking a cool drink in the hot desert (coincidentally, one of the only places the Silver-Haired bat doesn't like to live).
🦇🦇🦇🦇/5
Power: I love an opportunist, and the Silver-Haired Bat is especially good at getting while the getting's good. They can roost pretty much anywhere, including: in abandoned squirrel nests; in rotted tree hollows; in fissures and cracks in tree bark; in wood storage piles; under house siding panels; in naturally-formed caves; in abandoned mine shafts; and in cracks in cliff faces! They prefer heavily-forested areas, but they can and will snag winter roosts all along their migratory paths. This, and their wide range, make the Silver-Haired Bat one of the most adaptable species I know of.
🦇🦇🦇/5
Overall: If your loved ones emerge from a coma and forget what a bat is, the Silver-Haired Bat is a good one to introduce them to. My fellow US-Americans can look forward to these guys' re-emergence in March!

I saw the post about the goth/horror bat tattoos and it's reminded me to share my own bat tat! I deliberately asked to avoid that gothy/demon look, but encouraged stylization 🤘🦇 it's a silver-haired bat (with luna moth and fireflies) my goal is to get a tat of all the natively occurring species in my area! (Tricolored bat is next!)
Artist is @lizardqueentattoo on insta!

Oooo that's pretty, I like it. And I hope you'll share your tricolored bat tattoo when you get it, if you're comfortable doing so.

White Silver Hair Goth Girl 🕸
Tumblr media Tumblr media
:・゚✧:・.☽˚YOU don't have to dye your hair as a goth girl .☽˚。・゚✧:・
☪︎ I used a 2 yo synthetic wig on this picture, so it can last pretty long if you take care of them.
๋ ࣭ ⭑
☪︎ BUY the ones with a bang ! Because that hairline is terrible. They look realistic,people won't see the difference 👻
๋ ࣭ ⭑
☪︎ Invest in a real hair wig at some point IF you end up wearing it everyday (❀❛ ֊ ❛ „) ♡<planning on it rn>
๋ ࣭ ⭑
☪︎ Synthetic wigs are perfect for photoshoot though, so no pressure
Bonus tips : This polar blond hair color attracts the dusties said SheraSeven one day,so don't go pull your next sugar daddy with that.WON'T WORK !! ᵕ̈

Silver-haired Bats (Lasionycteris noctivagans) are one of several bat species found on Mount Rainier. They have black fur, but their "silver" appearance comes from longer, white-tipped hairs on the back. These bats are found primarily in forests and forage relatively low to the ground, often over lakes and other water sources, to catch flies and moths. Bats play an essential role in controlling insect populations. Have you observed bats around Mount Rainier’s lakes?
Get to know some of the other bat species in the park at https://go.nps.gov/zysn50.

Pepperidge the silver-haired bat, October 2022
Second go at a microbat and I think this one went a lot better! It was inspired by a Merlin Tuttle photo (pictured 4th). I didn't want to leave out the autumnal reds of the original, so (as with too many of my characters) I put a little leaf on their head...
Tried something new with the neck this time: the head is actually suspended by a single chain of stitches to make it floppy. Need to try again to see if it's a good technique though.
ingredients: yarn, wool, wire, black earrings (for eyes), rocks (for weight), super glue
~planning sketch below the cut~
Tumblr media
Unlike I planned, I ended up using felt only on the leaf and face - and both I made out of crochet and just felted over. The patagia and thumbs are entirely crochet. I also had to add brown crochet for the forelimbs - it's really hard to represent the transparency of their skin...
