In my town in the summer, there’s a spot where just after sunset you can see the flocks of swallows retreating from the fields while flocks of bats arrive from the other side. It is cool to see.

Rats in Germany have discovered how to catch bats and eat them by staying near a cave entrance and grabbing them out of the air

Don’t know if you’re joking, but in french, bats are called “chauve-souris”, which literally means “bald mouse”.

And in German a bat is a Fledermaus, which literally means “wing-mouse”

I my language they are called “ratapinyada” or “ratpenat” from the latin for winged rat.
