Happy #BatWeek!
Did you know we can thank bats for goodies like chocolate, bananas, and tequila? Bats pollinate lots of plant species including banana, cocoa, and agave. These bats are mostly found in tropical areas.
All of Nebraska's bats are insectivores, meaning they eat a lot of insects like mosquitoes. In fact, they will sometimes eat up to 600 insects each hour!

Birds possess remarkable vision, and thanks to the intricate structure of their eyes, they can see what humans cannot. Viewing the world through the eyes of birds can open up a new perspective on how these creatures perceive their surroundings. It also offers insight about color and light that differs from the human experience.
