The design is modern and can best be attached to a tree. The bat Bats eat predominantly insects, they usually capture them in the evening twilight and are traced through their echolocation. In winter, there are hardly any insects in the Netherlands, which is why bats in the Netherlands have a hibernation.

They often overwinter in large numbers in caves, ice cellars, bunkers or forts. Bats can fly fast and change direction, with their ultrasonic sounds they can quickly locate a prey and estimate how far away it is. In the pitch dark they can fly perfectly without hitting anything.
