Indian Bat help needed
Hi all

Sorry about the off topic, but I took this in India in October last year. I think I have found out the species of it (Asiatic Yellow House Bat, Scotophilus kuhlii) but was more interested in what the two were doing? Are they mating? is this a male and female, or an adult and youngster? Any advice on this would be appreciated. Got me baffled!:jump:

Cheers

Ian

They're obviously an old married couple by the expressions on their faces. :biggrin: Sorry I can't help you, but an interesting image.
