My challenge for this piece is to use the words 'amazing' and 'amazingly' as many times as humanly possible.
I had a amazing day. We went on a amazing bat walk were we learnt amazing facts. I expected it to be amazingly boring but I learnt loads. I didn't know lots of the amazingly huge pile of things we were told.
As we briskly walked through the amazing and beautiful Highgate Woods we were told things and pointed at the amazing habitats of bats. Most often they live in hollow trees and little holes in trees however they sometimes roost under lose bark or lose roof tiles. Although there are loads of natural places for bats to live they sometimes sleep in man made bat boxes. Can I tell you an amazing fact? At least 50 bats can squeeze into one bat box. If you are lucky enough to find a bat hole you can tell if there is one living there because of the marks around the hole. You will often see black stains around the hole. This is the bat's droppings. Also you might be able to see amazingly small and silvery wings of the bat's prey.
There are lot species of bat but the only type we have in the Uk is Micro Bat's. Unlike Mega bats micro bats only eat insects. To catch their prey they send out sound waves. When it bounces back at them they know what is around them. This is called echo location. Amazing. They can live up 40 years and keep to the same routine. Mega bats on the other hand eat fruit and nectar and can live a little longer. We have bats every where accept for in the polar area.
Over all I think bats are amazing, I hope you do to!
