Grey Long-eared Bat (Pleocotus austriacus)


Grey Long-eared Bats live in southern Europe, they are very similar to the Long-eared Bats, and in some areas they occur together. These individuals are resting together during their nocturnal hunts. They tend to group together in this way when the weather is cooler or when it rains, otherwise they spend more time flying and hunting.
