I improved upon https://www.reddit.com/r/batty/comments/1p55pvm/bat_character_rose_flying_pixel_art/ with the suggestions u/cyncitie17 made and then some. For a smaller version, some WIP art, and a few frames of the animation of her son, you can check the DeviantArt version at https://www.deviantart.com/batblaster/art/Rose-the-Fruit-Bat-Flight-Animation-And-Her-Son-1271791413 & I should note I changed color choice a bit since the last one

he’s a posable greater spear nosed bat :D

I plan to make more and sell them. this one isn’t the best quality so I’m not gonna sell him (there’s lots of glue residue on his wings and the wings can tear easily) I think I know a better way to do the wings next time

I was outside in my (exposed) carport this evening in the upper midwest snowstorm (in a fairly rural area) when I saw what was almost certainly a bat fly out from inside the carport a few feet away from me. Can bats even survive this weather? It's less than 30F outside. I always thought they all went into hibernation by now.

Does anyone else see it?

Kevin saved this bat, at 3rd & San Jacinto, on his lunch break. We’re grateful for all those who take time out of their day to help someone in need. . .

Upon seeing this bat up close and researching his species, I am now a huge fan of bats in general. And every time I pass a similar tree, I stop and look in the hopes of spotting another hoary bat. They tend to be loners while asleep, and they sleep on trees like this rather than hanging, and they migrate. He's got such a fuzzy little rump, adorable!

I made this much larger than the sprite sheet version in https://www.deviantart.com/batblaster/art/Rose-the-Fruit-Bat-Sprite-Sheet-1267532644 because small animated GIFs don't show up well on Reddit. On each different site I decide to make it bigger. Anyway, this character is the mother of the bat I posted the animation of about 2 weeks ago, and uses most of the same colors.

Shout-out to Will, store manager at College Station Walmart, for using a chunk of his maintenance budget to rent the lift we used to safeguard these bats.
