In Mandi's aviary: Poppy's early morning routine

- Mandi has spent some time collecting some of Poppy's morning routine; she says Poppy does awesome yawns, however despite waiting 15 minutes on several occasions, Poppy has stubbornly refused to yawn adorably for the camera to complete this video in a timely fashion.
Thanks Mandi for the footage.
This footage is given in thanks for the continuing donations which help support the fruit costs for her bats.
Tolga Bat Hospital takes donations for Mandi.
tolgabathospital.org/donate/
Mention Megabattie or Meg in the PayPal message box and the money will find its way to Mandi
If no message box appears, please email Jenny to tell her that the money is for Mandi.
IMPORTANT: If you pay through the PayPal Giving Fund, can you please email Jenny with the AMOUNT DONATED and the name under which you have donated, OR just forward along the PP receipt. If you specify the amount donated, it makes it heaps easier for Jenny to find the donation.
The Giving Fund doesn’t charge any fees (so the bats get more money) but PP doesn’t itemise out the amount, they just send a total every month, and we don’t know if the money is for Tolga or for Megabattie.
Here’s Jenny’s email.

The sniffing had me grinning like the Cheshire cat. Grape smacking is so much fun to hear. What a lovely lady Poppy is.
We can always count on Poppy for awesome sniffies.
This channel gave me a love for bats I wish more people knew about it
I accidentally got into rescuing bats 17 years ago and haven't looked back since.
I wish I was involved 40 years ago and I'd have 15 or so more years of experience with these amazing and fascinating funny fuzzes.
So sweet! Chicken noises are almost as cute as the kisses and lip smacking!
Thanks Poppy, you show us perfectly all that a girl like you after a night of fun have to do: stretching, scratching bigwinging, a bit of Mandi' s love and then controlling everything around, thanks a lot Poppy!!
Lovely relaxed stretch against a colourful backdrop. Love the grape moment! So good, Poppy
Love how she emerges from her flowery boudoir ❤🦇🇨🇦
We don't usually see Poppy at any distance; she usually bustles right up to the camera. This is a real Poppy treat.
Magnificent! Especially the slo mo big wings!
Adorable. I love how she hides behind her blanket. ❤
Such a good and precious batty, and gorgeous BIG wings!
She looks so cozy in between those blankets!
I love how she kind of plays peekaboo around the pretty flower curtain! Thank you for sharing these videos, I love them!!🦇💕🦇💕🦇💕
I love the early morning flip like ugh ... ok ... now I got that done what's next ? Where's breakfast while I stretch
The stretching was beautiful and showed off her perfect wings. I see when she was finished waking up, she was classic Poppy doing her photo bombing. The slo-mo grape eating was fascinating to watch.
Poppy is my inspiration. #lifegoals
Poppy sweeps her wings around and folds them so elegantly after each bigwings stretch!
She is adorable and sweet! ❤
She's such a beautiful girl ❤❤❤
Thank you Meg for sharing Mandi's lovely video of beautiful Lady Poppy. Her big wings are so impressive and the orange coloring on her neck is so pretty. Oh, Copernicus is her boyfriend, YAY!🤗🩶🧡🦇💞🩶🦇💓
I don't know if they're besties or partners in sex, just that they like hanging around together and winding the other batties up at night.
I adore all that@@Megabattie
Oh wow! Was für ein schöner beeindruckender Morning Stretch! So ein schöner Schatz 😍😍😍
Poppy sure is cute! I love her photo bombs and sniffies!
How beautiful ❤🇨🇦🦇🍁
Gorgeous Poppy!
Such a pretty girl❤❤
Her snuffling noises are so frikkin adorable 😍
What a cute little compilation. Thanks Poppy and Mandi. X
I love Poppy!
Love to see Poppy stretching her lovely wings. The babies are so awkward with their wings at first - not sure what these darn things are for, or how they fold up - but they get the hang of them soon enough.
I can hardly stand how adorable they are ‼️ 🥰🥰🥰
🤗💕 Gorgeous.
Aww Poppy kisses and nibbles!!🫠🥰❤️🦇🇨🇦
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤thank you both gives a smile 🤩🤩🤩💖💖🦇🦇🦇🦇
I love sky puppies and animals in general
Poppy seems like an very affectionate bat that likes to socialize
Yes, too tame for release; too humanised.
I love the wing flick that sounded just like a fan.💕👍🦇
it did indeed
Amazing channel 🦇🦇🦇🦇 🤩🤩🤩🤩
So cute! 😍 All video footage is well worth the wait!
Nagyon édes❤❤❤
Fascinating creatures.... I never knew how cute and docile they could be until I came across your channel....
Poppy was handraised and unable to be released, so she has been in care her entire life; she has all the other permanent care animals as buddies, so she's got a batty life plus human contact; she's remained tame and is able to have the best of both worlds.
A wild bat isn't docile.
@@Megabattie yes... I've seen many of your rescue videos of wild bats and as is the case with most wild critters (including cats and dogs), they can be defensive, violent and combatative... Its just such a treat to see the few tame ones and how cute they are.
Thank you for all the work you do and the video records of it, so we can see it too.
Caring for them is work enough, no doubt, the added work of documentation is greatly appreciated.
@@jimmyfortrue3741 Mandi does all the hard work; I merely rescue and do immediate care, and upload to YT. I'm lucky Mandi takes the time to send me such awesome footage that I can share wth my viewers.
She gets up in the morning and scares all the evil spirits away with her Bigwings
0:47 I love it when they snap their wings like that
me too
@@Megabattie Scare the evil spirits away?
@@PaulG.x LOL, I crawl out of bed in the hope the evil spirits don't notice I have awoken
😀
😊😊❤❤🦇🦇
Poppy...you are so beautiful when you do your big wing stretch!😇❤️🖤🦇🖤❤️
💕🦇💕🦇💕🦇💕
The must have pretty strong neck muscles
They do
Meg, do you remember a bat named Roberto? I came across a video where the old (young?) me mentioned him, but I don’t remember him.
I don't; more information about him? What happened to him? Baby, adult, juvie? Rescue or in Mandi's aviary?
@@Megabattie ,
I don’t remember. Beachgirl mentioned Roberto, and she’s my old account. I haven’t been able to access her for over 3 years. He might have been a micro. I saw my old comment on a microbat thread on Ze’s flying fox video (I know he’s not your glass of bubbly, but I still like his work).
Really, could they get any cuter?
So do you use the bat's poop as plant food or throw them away?
They're too wet to easily compost unless you have a lot of compost farms going at the same time. The pee and wet poo and juice and dropped fruit make it all very wet.
At Tolga they use worm farms to dispose of the dropped fruit and excreta. They have about 4 very large trays a few metres long and maybe 1.5 metres wide, and lots and lots of garden worms, and the droppings and spats get put onto a different one each day, covered (and covered from the rats as well), and the worms do their work. The only time it doesn't get put on is when they've had a lot of leaves (cut off branchlets from mulberry or fiddlewood trees and put into the cages as enrichment; the bats both play with them and chew them and pulp the leaves; I think the leaves supply a mineral which is low in their diets. I tried tasing the leaves and they're pretty mehh! The bats also love mangrove leaves (for the salt).
What are you name ?' How old are you?😊❤
Do the older residents ever get to go into the flight avary to fly around a little bit for exercise?
The old dudes can't fly, which is why they're in the hospital aviary outside with the slings, shelves and trampoline mesh underneath.
@Megabattie thank you for the response. Is Poppy one of those that can't fly? Are they unable to fly solely due to old age?
@@Charmayne7 I don't know why Poppy is in permanent care; you can't get a permanent care licence unless the bat is unreleasable.
Ask me again on the next Poppy video and I'll have asked Mandi by then why she's permanent care.
Teddy was handraised 30 years ago and never flew, reason unknown; he's been in permanent care for is life.
Gelert has metabolic bone disease; he is only about 17 or 18 this year. He can't fly because his bones are soft; from maternal malnutrition during pregnancy; he was handraised by Mandi and has been in care with her for his whole life.
Cinders had horrible wing membrane burns when her mother was electrocuted; she doesn't have enough membrane to fly and has been in care all her life; she's about 18, but is in with the old dude (like Gelert) because she broke her leg a few years ago when she fell in the aviary, so she's in "protective" care in an aviary where if she falls again she doesn't hurt herself.
Copernicus is happy to be in with the oldies during the day but likes to come out to GenPop (general population) during the night to hoon around with Poppy. He has to be somewhere around 20 now.
I think Zena is in and out of the oldies' aviary as she chooses.
@@Megabattie Thank you so much for their bios!
Quand je pense qu'il y a des gens qui n'aiment pas les chauves-souris. Elles ont mauvaise réputation, sûrement à cause de Dracula le vampire. Et pourtant c'est un animal adorable, très utile, je crois qu'elle se nourrit de moustiques, en tout cas pour certaines espèces (faudrait quand meme que je vérifie). En tout cas il y a une chose qkthe n'ai pas à vérifier : c'est un très bel animal et adorable ❤❤❤
Ces chauves-souris sont des chauves-souris frugivores et ne mangent pas d'insectes, mais les petites que vous avez en France, les microchauves-souris, sont importantes dans la lutte antiparasitaire.
@@Megabattie merci beaucoup pour ces précisions. J'ai même pas eu besoin de me renseigner 😉. Qu'elles soient de France où qu'elles soient d'ailleurs (peut-être USA pour ces beautés) et frugivores (je savais déjà qu'elles aimaient les bananes, puisque j'ai vu une vidéo peut-être bien de cette chaîne, mais je savais pas pour les insectes) et bien elles sont craquantes et toutes belles.
@@sacha.007 Les petites chauves-souris que vous avez en France mangent des insectes.
Ces chauves-souris, les renards volants, se trouvent en Australie, dans le Pacifique, en Asie-Pacifique, en Afrique, en Égypte et au Moyen-Orient.
Il existe différentes espèces de roussettes, mais il n'y en a aucune en Europe ni dans aucune des Amériques sur le continent.
Bienvenue chez Megabattie,
J'ai mis beaucoup d'informations dans les descriptions sous les vidéos - donc si vous avez des questions, cherchez d'abord les réponses. Je mets aussi le sort de l'animal si je le connais, au moment où je mets la vidéo. Je pourrai y mettre des mises à jour plus tard si je découvre ce qui est arrivé à l'animal après qu'il ait quitté mes soins.
Il existe également une liste de lecture Happy Outcomes si vous souhaitez uniquement regarder des vidéos dans lesquelles la chauve-souris survit ; c'est une chaîne de la vraie vie et vous obtenez le bon, le mauvais, le laid et le pénible, et même mes oopsies.
Vous pouvez trouver d'autres vidéos sur une chauve-souris individuelle en recherchant dans la barre de recherche YT Megabattie/et le nom de la chauve-souris que vous souhaitez suivre.
Il y a un onglet communauté (comme une mini page Facebook) sur ma chaîne - si vous allez sur la page d'accueil de Megabattie, il y a une barre de menu en haut sous la photo de couverture. Accueil, Vidéos, Playlists, Communauté, À propos. Si vous cliquez sur l'onglet Communauté, vous trouverez des publications dans lesquelles je peux partager des photos, parler de certaines des vidéos que j'ai publiées et répondre à des questions.
@@Megabattie merci beaucoup pour ces détails. En fait je croyais que j'avais déjà vu votre chaîne avec les belles chauves-souris, mais en réalité c'était d'autres vidéos montrant des baby Chauves-souris manger des bananes, et sauvées aussi par des associations.
Je vais regarder votre chaîne attentivement car j'ai eu une notification de YT suite sans doute à ce que j'ai regardé, et je vais m'y abonner 👍👍👍
