  Small bat under our veranda. Slightly larger than a mouse in size.

  1. Lawrie Conole  Very fuzzy picture which makes ID a little tricky. It's clearly a long-eared bat (Nyctophilus sp.), and although it's hard to tell from the photo it looks not to have a y-shaped noseleaf. That with it's warm brown colouration suggests that in your area it's most likely Gould's Long-eared Bat (Nyctophilus gouldi).

  2. • Andrew Brown  Thanks Lawrie. Yes, low light didn't help with the photo.

     • • Lawrie Conole  I'd go with Nyctophilus sp. as I don't think it's definitively verifiable from the photo.

  1. Cathy Powers  This is a Plume Moth in the Pterophoroidea superfamily. I don't know these moths well and cannot offer a Genus nor species at this time.

  3. Andrew Brown  Thanks for the clue Cathy. When I searched NS there is a Geranium Plume Moth and that is the plant it was on when disturbed.
