Why, yes, Meg is AWESOME at naming bats! Here's hoping both Labyrinth and Fig Daiquiri do splendidly in care. Thank you to both MOP's for caring and to Merryn!
Good evening from Russia! We dont have megabats here, only microbats, but i love both so much! So thank you for helping this little ones. God bless you, your family and your little patients
Thanks Moonlight. Welcome to Megabattie, I put lots of information in the descriptions under the videos - so if you have questions, look for the answers there first. I also put the fate of the animal if I know it, at the time I put the video up. I may put updates there later if I find out what happened to the animal after it has left my care. There is also a Happy Outcomes playlist if you want to only watch videos where the bat survives; this is a real life channel and you get the good, the bad, the ugly and distressing, and even my oopsies. You can find further videos on an individual bat by searching in the YT search bar for Megabattie/and the name of the bat you want to follow. There is a community tab (like a mini Facebook page) on my channel - if you go to Megabattie home page, there is a menu bar across the top under the cover pic. Home, Videos, Playlists, Community, About. If you click on the community tab there are posts there where I can share pix and talk about some of the videos I put up and answer questions.
They both have that fairy dust, head smacked wonderment that is so pretty despite what it is. I hope Labyrinth can be saved. Fig Daiquiri does look stronger but watching your channel for years, you just never know which why a bump on the head will go. Absolutely Meg, you're the best bat naming carer ever. I really hope you feel better very soon. 🦇
Hi Anna You seem new to my channel; I always talk to the bats so the sound of my voice doesn't bother them; they don't speak English but they do learn to understand tone of voice and I keep my words and actions and tone of voice very positive and reassuring.

Even your CAR is getting famous! Be well, Meg, and good luck to the rescued bats. I do indeed appreciate your awesome naming skills, and I have lots of company in that.
When the ranger phoned I said I'd park near the Labyrinth; she asked if I still had the red car. I said no - I have a bat car now and it's bright blue and bright green and has bat photos all over it; she wanted to see it...
I actually debated whether or not to leave it in the video, but it's indicative of her having some leg or grip weakness. And we forget that Merryn felt her slipping off her finger so she was already reacting before I even saw her fall. Still, awesome catch which made us both skip a few heartbeats in panic.
Yet neither of them has a microchip so they haven't been handraised. Labyrinth is too young to have been released through creche after being handraised, but Fig Daiquiri is old enough since she's from 2022's baby season - she's not chipped though, or banded.
They have beautiful faces!! I have to admit I am totally ignorant when it comes to bats. I never thought about the fact that they can’t stand up, you mentioned that in previous video I watched I never thought about it. This is been very educational and thoroughly enjoying your videos. Thank you for what you do!!! I
I agree! Because of these videos, I have fallen in love with the FF's. The micros, meh, not so much. I love the vids of Meg and Mags fawning over and feeding the babies. So cute. ❤
@@JennBX1, I’ve become fond of a micro (a silver back) who was a frequent resident visitor at my mum’s old house. We were all careful not to disturb him because we appreciated his work eating insects at night. He had a beautiful coat. I wish we had flying foxes here, though. They’re beautiful.
@@SuziQ. I was thinking the same thing I wish we had them here, but that’s what makes our areas so unique. I just love how sweet she talks to them. I love that you can tell she’s a very kind and caring person, and being from Texas I’m learning the different phrasing for different things I enjoy that also.
@@dazylulu1832 , Oh, you have your own bat whisperer, Merlin Tuttle. He’s the guy who identified mum’s bat as a silver back. She randomly met him at an airport. Meg, Maggie, Mandi, and Merryn all have soothing voices when they talk to the bats. I wish I could do that all of the time with my dogs. One is so loud that I have to shout over her. I will practice “inside voice”.
you never stop appreciating each and every one of them and their beautifull little faces just one of the many reasons that make you such a fantastic human being x
Such sweet babies, Meg. Great work and video. Hope you're feeling better now ❤ I wanted to add how cute their eyes are when you're inspecting the. They look at you, then quickly look away, perhaps plotting! So 😍
Amazing Meg you are!💕 2 gray headed ladies🩶🦇🩶🦇 who will be in great care with wonderful Merryn.💕 I will keep positive prayers re: Labyrinth's future xrays. Lovely MOP's.💕 Please take care of yourself Meg!🥺💕

Apparently influenza isn't something you just bounce back to status quo ante once your symptoms are gone and you're no longer pestilent. Who'd have known this?
@@MegabattieI had the flu once when I was a fine, young(ish) adult and I thought I was going to die. My mom had to come take care of me. After over a week without improvement, I went to the doctor who gave me a massive dose of penicillin and here I am, alive to tell the tale! 😊
I am still horribly tired all the time but am improving; I shouldn't have had the shingles vaccine a week ago; it knocked me around again and I was squidgy over the entire weekend after it. Since I don't ever seem to react badly to vaccines, I was a little annoyed that this one was so rough at a time I couldn't deal with more rough @@slister45
@@Megabattie Yikes! I was just thinking seriously about getting the shingles vaccine and the current Covid booster (the last of which laid me low for one day) at once, but am now reconsidering. Perhaps I'll split them up in light of your experience. The only critters depending on me are my yard birds and squirrels (who I feed daily), and my constant and faithful companion, Lucy, a German short-haired pointer/Labrador Retriever mix who is lame in both back legs. Even one day of downtime on my part creates havoc in their lives. I can only imagine the impact of you being out of commission for a day or two! Your dear little flying foxes, and you, dear Meg, have touched my heart so deeply. I thank heaven for you and for my great fortune in finding your channel! Much love to all 🙏🦇🫶🩷🇦🇺🇺🇸🥰😘
Meg, it's nice you've got your sense of humor, even tho you're feeling poorly. I hope Labyrinth makes it, but reading about her injuries, one can only hope 🙏🏽
These bats navigate by sight; they don't echolocate. They have large eyes which see really well during the day, and they have reflectors in their eyes which helps them make the most of the ambient night light.

They are both sweethearts. Fig did a halfhearted attempt at bigwings, but they both looked utterly confused. We never know until we know, but I hope both girls make it, and recover well. I’m sorry you are still wiped out by your bout of influenza, it takes so much out of you that it feels like it’s never going to properly go away. merryn will take good care of them so you can take care of you.✨🖤🇨🇦
Thanks Wanderlust, but I don't believe in heaven; I just think life ends, and that's fine by me. If there is something after death, I think it is probably something like a mass consciousness pool, but since I don't share nicely with other people, this is also probably not for me.
@@Megabattie I actually don’t either but live in Italy in a medieval catholic village … hahaha. People ask, ‘well where do you think you’ll go after you die?’ And I say ‘to the same place I was before I was born’. Let me just say that what you’re doing with your short time on earth is RICH and wonderful and you’re a regular heroine.
Meg, your superpower(names ) is awesome, : Fig Daiquiri is awesome!! Labyrinth why??? By the ways I hope these 2 girls will doing well at Merryn' s. It' s so interesting to see you and Merryn to take care of the bat together , you pay attention to every single part of the bat' s body, this is the right way to take care of bats
finalmente riesco a capire cosa si dice nel salvataggio, ho impostato sottotitoli nella mia Lingua...un'Emozione sentire tante Belle parole...Ammmoriiiiii sono queste ragazze salvate👍👏💐🌹🦇💝💖
Va bene. Traduco i tuoi commenti tramite Google Translation quindi so cosa stai dicendo. Scrivo descrizioni sotto i video; puoi tagliare e incollare le mie descrizioni nella traduzione di Google per sapere di più su cosa sta succedendo nel video.
Well I saw the oddest sight last night. It was flyout time but instead of them all going in the same general direction, they were going everywhere and basically none of them could seem to make up their mind what direction they were going in. As far as I could see there was no predator chasing them. Any ideas?
When the weather is weird, the bats start flying aimlessly around; they also leave the colony earlier when there's not a lot of food around. If there's a predator in the colony or a disturbance they'll mill around - but if it was flyout time maybe they were sensing a weather pattern which was dangerous and trying to figure out where best to go.
Meg, my doctor has prescribed ipratropium nasal spray for the irritating runny (drippy) nose & post nasal drip. He says it’s usually prescribed more for men than women, but asked if I wanted to try it, and I’ve had good results with it. I have to use it almost every to every other day due to the runny nose. But I only have to use it once a day and it does help dry it up and stop having that little constant sniffling and runniness to my nose. Something to think about.
I'm only sniffing when I'm out in the heat and humidity and having to puff up hills. I believe that I need to let this all out rather than suppress it; I think you recover faster. But it doesn't worry me when I'm just sitting around, only when I'm out and about doing exercise
May I advice you to get a wind muff for your audio. They aren't expensive and you'd be so much easier to hear over the wind. 😘Im pretty sure you could even make one, from a fluffy cloth, or from a peace of an old fluffy out of use tedy.
Bats aren't pets; they're wild animals who want to be in the wild. They're socially and emotionally intelligent but colony animals who need batty company and interaction. Don't want one as a pet; enjoy them as they are.
No; fewer than 1% of the bat population may be infected at any one time, but they have to be actively infected and sending the virus from their brain at the time in order to be able to transmit the virus. The virus also has to be present in the saliva and it has to contact a nerve ending through a bite or scratch. I've seen 3 infected bats in 17 years, all of which I correctly identified as being "wrong" and sent them off for testing. I don't get bitten or scratched; I wear sensible arm protection and I'm good at handling them so I don't get bitten.
only it's horribly hot and humid here so it's the opposite end of the spectrum. I get out of the air-conditioned car and the heat and humidity make my nose run.
We do appreciate your awesome naming skills, Meg! I get maggot anxiety when I see the lint on the bats, too. Was that giant fig tree a Moreton Bay Fig? They get those huge above ground roots. There’s an impressive historic one in Santa Barbara. I’ve heard the ear squeaks, too. The first time, I heard my sister’s ear squeak when we were on a ski lift. Mine have done it a couple of times. No one tells us about the phenomenon. Can you use your superpowers to name it something fun? I hope that the batties are doing well, and get to see Adrian soon, and I hope your nose sorts itself and stops being annoying to you. Thank you again, for all that you do. 💙🤍 Addit: I imagine that the dogs smell and hear the bats much better than humans can.
🤞🏻 that Labyrinth’s shoulder is OK, and that her and Fig Daiquiri’s head’s are not too badly smacked. Such beautiful little girls 🥰. Very cautiously hopeful for their recovery. ❤️🩹❤️🩹 It’s wonderful to see you out and about, at least for a little while. Progress in the getting well department! Still takes a wallop out of you, though. I hate how long it takes to recover from the flu 🤧! Why, of course we adore your naming prowess! You are the Master Namer! ❤🦇❤️
Why, yes, Meg is AWESOME at naming bats! Here's hoping both Labyrinth and Fig Daiquiri do splendidly in care. Thank you to both MOP's for caring and to Merryn!
They have a very intelligent stare
5:43 love the MOP trying to calm the bat 🥰
Both Labyrinth and Fig Daiquiri are beautiful batties!

He says it’s usually prescribed more for men than women, but asked if I wanted to try it, and I’ve had good results with it. I have to use it almost every to every other day due to the runny nose. But I only have to use it once a day and it does help dry it up and stop having that little constant sniffling and runniness to my nose. Something to think about.
I'm only sniffing when I'm out in the heat and humidity and having to puff up hills.
I believe that I need to let this all out rather than suppress it; I think you recover faster.
But it doesn't worry me when I'm just sitting around, only when I'm out and about doing exercise
🦇❤🙏
May I advice you to get a wind muff for your audio. They aren't expensive and you'd be so much easier to hear over the wind. 😘Im pretty sure you could even make one, from a fluffy cloth, or from a peace of an old fluffy out of use tedy.
The microphone is part of my video glasses; I'd have to put a sock over my head to cover the microphone.
😮🎉❤❤❤
You sound like you feel dreadful, get well soon!
Love all the good work you do for the batties!
Mmm I still feel like a limp rag and it's a week since my symptoms subsided.
Can a bat become a nice pet? Can a bat recognize a human? Are bats intelligent animal?
Bats aren't pets; they're wild animals who want to be in the wild.
They're socially and emotionally intelligent but colony animals who need batty company and interaction.
Don't want one as a pet; enjoy them as they are.
Are you no scared from lysavirus?
No; fewer than 1% of the bat population may be infected at any one time, but they have to be actively infected and sending the virus from their brain at the time in order to be able to transmit the virus.
The virus also has to be present in the saliva and it has to contact a nerve ending through a bite or scratch.
I've seen 3 infected bats in 17 years, all of which I correctly identified as being "wrong" and sent them off for testing.
I don't get bitten or scratched; I wear sensible arm protection and I'm good at handling them so I don't get bitten.
Get well soon. Not so much bat sniffies as Meg sniffies, know the problem well in the cold winds.
only it's horribly hot and humid here so it's the opposite end of the spectrum.
I get out of the air-conditioned car and the heat and humidity make my nose run.
Have you named one smoke stack after the drink yet? It's not my name, if you have not used it and decide to use it I won't harass you
LOL no, but it would have to appeal to me at the time and be relevant in some way.
@@Megabattie smoke is grey.
Yes it is. I usually need a link in my brain to the site where I rescued the bat. @@RoxanneSharbono-mb8ol
We do appreciate your awesome naming skills, Meg!
I get maggot anxiety when I see the lint on the bats, too.
Was that giant fig tree a Moreton Bay Fig? They get those huge above ground roots. There’s an impressive historic one in Santa Barbara.
I’ve heard the ear squeaks, too. The first time, I heard my sister’s ear squeak when we were on a ski lift. Mine have done it a couple of times. No one tells us about the phenomenon. Can you use your superpowers to name it something fun?
I hope that the batties are doing well, and get to see Adrian soon, and I hope your nose sorts itself and stops being annoying to you. Thank you again, for all that you do. 💙🤍
Addit: I imagine that the dogs smell and hear the bats much better than humans can.
I think it was a Moreton Bay Fig - it wasn't a port Jackson Fig. I didn't look closely.
🤞🏻 that Labyrinth’s shoulder is OK, and that her and Fig Daiquiri’s head’s are not too badly smacked. Such beautiful little girls 🥰. Very cautiously hopeful for their recovery. ❤️🩹❤️🩹
It’s wonderful to see you out and about, at least for a little while. Progress in the getting well department! Still takes a wallop out of you, though. I hate how long it takes to recover from the flu 🤧!
Why, of course we adore your naming prowess! You are the Master Namer! ❤🦇❤️
Not everyone appreciates the naming effort and skill I put into name selection... sadly.
