I'm still at work, but I plan on going home, mellowing out and watching it again.

Fantastic...
its funny how you look at a bat and go 'ugh!' and you look at a cactus and go 'meh' but ,really, looking at this vid, the bat just has to spend his life ,fucking,flying and sticking his mush into huge nectar filled flower heads.

I now want to come back as a 'Cactus Bat'

It's funny, I grew up with cacti where I played and bats a plenty.
I have always loved the life in the desert that many of my friends from the east could never see.

its a city devoid of any wild life, apart from the locals. :)

They're so 'ugly' they're cute!

you haven't spent a night at the back of my house........
we have a brook and a copse which is alive with bats. Nice when you can see them, not when they're flitting passed your head at a gazillion miles and hour in the dark :)

I used to night fish many years ago,
so am used to having bats flitting through my hair...I could always hear their ultrasonic sounds too.

THAT was fucking beautiful.
and a very nice counter balance to the potential rant i was going to have of a bit ago. Bats are awesome, bees can kill me, but they are cool to look at. here in florida bats are a rare sight, we killed them all :( If there were more of them it would be nearly a tolerable place to live. i will drop this here as it is one of my fav. places to visit, and kinda applies to the architectural ideas that never worked out link down the board a bit.

There was a story earlier about a bunch of sheep going over an overpass in Aussie land
Maybe the lemmings followed...

That's just the 'alt text' for the image,
what gets show if the image itself isn't able to be shown...as the icons are on the same server as the rest of the B3ta site, your local copy might have become corrupted...pressing <ctrl> + <f5> should fix things if that's the case.
