I absolutely love Bats, especially at dusk watching them seemingly randomly flittering around catching insects, especially near water. In the UK, they are considered pests, not because of rabies which luckily we have eradicated here, but because they are all protected species by law. Ask anyone wanting to build a new home, or do a barn conversion. Part of planning law involves having a survey done to check that the Bat's natural habitat isn't being disturbed, they cost the UK building industry millions!!
Another great article, you write so readable....

PS "Blood has a high protein concentration (93 % of blood is protein), and almost no carbohydrates or proteins" typo ? lol ;-)

Hi @nathen007. Thanks for pointing out the typo! This means two types in as many posts now, so time to get a bit stricter with my proof-reading from now on. It's supposed to say *carbohydrates and vitamins* :) 

Ouch, I can see why that is annoying. I've heard of some people who have had some of the same problems here in Norway, but we don't really need to have a survey done unless there's a threatened population in the area, so it's not really likely to cause much trouble.
