BAT - Foster Brown

Bats are flying mammals, this you might know.
They sleep together while they hang from their toes.
There’s big ones, small ones, and in between.
Large as a fox, small as a bumblebee.

There’s one more thing I’d like to say:
Bats aren’t blind, well, they see okay.
They use echolocation to find their way,
using sound waves to catch their prey.

There’s Little Brown, Big Brown, Yellow and White,
Long-Nose, Leaf-Nose and the Hog-Nose type,
Silver-Haired, Hairy-Legged, Hoary and Red…
Don’t go away, there’s more to be said.
