Baby Willy Wagtail Meets His Brother And Spits His Dummy

Extremely fortunate to still be alive, baby Willy Wagtail was rescued by Leonard a couple of days ago after being found by a member of the public on a pathway under a flying-fox colony.
Willy Wagtail's survival is truly a miracle as bat colonies are commonly home to other residents such as large carpet pythons, water dragons and crows all of which will take baby flying-foxes.
Now in care, Wagtail will be growing up with his new brother Kestrel before they are both soft released back to the wild in a few months time.

Such cute babies. Do good that they can grow up together and eventually graduate to be free to continue the colonies of bats.

I learn so much on this channel. Off to look up "willy wag tail" AND water dragon. Best of you sweet sky pups. And to all caring for them: may your tea be hot, your beer be cold and no DAmnED mosquitoes to both you.

[@enigel1969]

Oh dear, poor baby even needs to learn how to hang on to the dummy. He’s so brand new and helpless, it breaks ones heart. But he’s also very active and has you and a little brother so everything should be fine.❤

[@saraa.wesker89]

So precious. Please keep up the good work. They need you guys ❤

[@ChubbyUnicorn]

Kestrel has the sweetest face! Looks at Meg with love.

Kestrel is thinking ...' Can't get any sound out of this Trumpet ' ?

[@Jesuisartiste]

Could you pet their little heads for us?

[@chrriistiine8735]

You do such amazing work ❤ I would love to volunteer with you but I’m in the uk! Do you ever keep any of them, like ones you can’t release?

[@moomagooweeaboo]

Are the 'pacifiers' something that comforts them?

[@farmduck2762]

In the wild they latch onto the mother's nipple and as long as they have that grip they know they can't fall out of the tree. If you watch the videos of births, they attach to a nipple in the first minute usually.

Why do bats need dummies?

[@gerry5134]

They seem very relaxed with you.. do young ones ever bite ?

[@connienowak298]

🦇🦇🦇❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@branevans3705]

Or what we call them in the US... pacifiers ❤😊

[@anneterry3660]

Showing some of your TH-cam videos of the bats changes some peoples, especially the children, minds about bats. Usually they only know from comic books are poorly made movies about bats. Seeing the bats as mammals and the faces, having worked in medicine I give them information on the basic structure of the "wing" being like our arm bones with the webs so they can fly, then hold out my arm and wiggling my thumbs.

What are water dragons?

[@debbiescott6732]

Oh, 😄
