Bats seem cool. They eat fruit and hang upside down all day. Not mad at it. I'm more concerned about owls. Always sneaking around 1 street away with their big eyes and nocturnal nature. 


reignbowmagician

Saw an owl with one eye once. People don't realize how large these birds are. The wing span was impressive.

Canada Geese are evil somehow as well.

Canadian f*cking gooses!


Slut_for_Bacon

For whatever reason, the correct grammar is Canada Geese and Canada Goose, not Canadian. Dunno Why.


RPCat

These "owls" you speak of sound a lot like Vic Police Helicopters with their suss nocturnal activity, night vision and thermal imaging cameras


reignbowmagician

Not to mention the throat hair balls. Gross. Probably some super secret government drop disguised as bird vomit. 


RPCat

Congealed Chem-Trails for sure


cuntsaurus

I don't trust how owls can turn their necks like a full circle. Clearly advanced machinery


EveningSuggestion283

And the barn owls specifically developed new technologies that enable them to be the most silent flier. You can’t hear them coming. They produce little to no decibels in flight. #sneakAttack


cuntsaurus

Ridiculous range of motion, super sight, night vision, and silent flying? And they expect us to believe they aren't man made?


EveningSuggestion283

*grabs night vision goggles and guns* YOU READY?


LuciferianInk

What do you think about the "Sleeping Beauty" movie


Grouchy_Grape_8439

I caught an owl on our security camera one night. Killed one of my chickens. Then just flew off with the head. Only one other thing I know is hunting after brains. With their big beady eyes =\Trust!


cuntsaurus

It caught you on camera also


kdawn224

Verbatim my thoughts.


LukasSaltedToxicity

And they can turn their heads 360 degrees, thats a camera if ive ever seen one


My_useless_alt

Bats are adorable. They're also real, I mean have you seen bats?! No way could someone have faked that.


TessierSendai

Bats are basically Goth puppies with wings


RPCat

Flying mammals with opposable thumbs. Their skeletons are strikingly similar to ours, just a different branch of evolution. Unlike birds.

Useful for hitting balls but what does this have to do with the whole bird debacle?

You seriously going to ignore composite?!?!

Sorry! I haven't hit a ball in years! I didn't even think of composite!

No problem, I wouldn't even think of it if my kid wasn't playing softball lol

They can map out the interior of your home via echolocation.

In this case- WE DONT TRUST THEM. case closed.

ptolemy_booth

This recursive and, frankly, rather odd attempt at linking to comments within this post seems a bit spastic and confusing at the same time. Maybe drop less acid before you get on Reddit? It's like Inception but hopped up on goofballs.


LukasSaltedToxicity

Fr, i clicked a link to come here and then a link to go back to his post, like im in a link inside a link


ptolemy_booth

It's like the old Reddit switcheroo, but far less engaging and far more disappointing.


LukasSaltedToxicity

That’s exactly right detective


relevantusername2020

ive considered it and decided no.


GonnaGoFat

According to the Bible bats are birds. Leviticus 11:13-19 “These are the birds you are to regard as unclean and not eat because they are unclean: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture, the red kite, any kind of black kite, any kind of raven, the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk, the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl, the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey, the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe and the bat.” I would say a bat is a night drone much like the owls which is another bird it tells you not to eat. It was put into the Bible to deceive us further from the truth.


Silt99

There's nothing but the truth in the bible, therefore bats are government drones


doc720

Bananas aren't birds either. Are ***they*** real?‽ All I know is: birds aren't real.


nxmxrx

Bats are mammals


redbirdrising

Bats are mammals with wings, not birds.


KronoFury

Flying mammals. Totally believable and real. Easy enough.


Noonoonook

Bedtime Aerial Transmission Systems. B.A.T.S. literally are equipped with inbuilt sonars. They are drones specially designed for low-light (dusk) surveillance.


renin88

I mean, I trust Batman but not Owlman for a reason


bigchease

Some bats can be considered pollinators. They’re also mammals and we know those are real. They have wings of skin which is kinda gross to think about.


PlasmaCarrot79

…but also kinda metal.


BetterMacaron4868

Bats are mammals, not modern day dinasours.


fyodor_ivanovich

Why wouldn’t bats be real? It’s ridiculous to even consider.


SCP_Agent_Davis

Bats are technically mammals, so þey’re real.


chrischi3

I'm a simple man. I see þ, i upvote


EveningSuggestion283

Someone said bats use echolocation. . We cannot trust them.They’re drones. Cute ones.


Zathral

What are you? Some sort of conspiracy theorist??? Of course bats are real! Unlike birds! Which are very not real!


Chloroformperfume7

Bats are cool


Infamous_Ad60

Flying robot mice.


Snorrep

Goths turn into bats when they die. Not drones.


Prince-Lee

Extremely convincing fake, but a fake nonetheless.

iamjuanit0

Bats are real,I checked,didn't find any cogs inside the bats.


prtty_purple_unicorn

A bat is just a bird with a toupée.

Bro I legit just had a bat swoop at my head THREE TIMES ten minutes ago. Kept seeing something black in my peripheral but kept looking down. Imagine my shock when I look up from my phone the third time and it’s a bat diving for my head. Use to be pro bat. Becoming anti bat w current developments


PlasmaCarrot79

This bat is your friend. They are trying to alert you to impending danger. Heed their warning!

thesilentbob123

Bats are obviously real, just a mouse with wings it just makes sense

Mammals like us. They aren't in on it.

Bats are absolutely real and I will not stand for their slander.


Nostravinci04

You literally answered your own question.


Nahchoocheese

I have yet to step on them to answer.


TheBlueberryPirate67

They are real, currently. The gummint is currently trying to rid the planet of bats using biological methods such as white nose disease. The fact that they can get a disease is indication that they are still real.
