Re: Fatally snared bat

I am afraid the Bat is dead ,if you look closely you can see the dried wing bones,the eyes are gone and it looks very dehydrated, it plainly went after a prey item and its under-fur got hooked. The first Pip I ever saw close-up had landed and taken prey from a Honeysuckle this one obviously did not realise is danger with this particular plant
