Brown long-eared bat Christmas card

The hand-drawn brown long-eared bat design coupled with bold pops of festive watercolour (in this case, a Christmas wreath with red berries!) is guaranteed to capture the hearts of your loved ones.

The animal art Christmas greeting card is perfect for those who embrace the unconventional and wish to add a touch of fun to their Christmas greetings this year. Whether you're sending holiday cheer to fellow wildlife enthusiasts or simply looking to surprise someone with a truly exceptional card, the Wild Lines bat Christmas card might just be the perfect choice.

The brown long-eared bat is one of the UK’s most adorable residents. And, after the pipistrelle, it’s the most common. These guys fly relatively slowly (for bats), and emit a quiet echolocation as they swoop amongst trees and shrubs, which led to their nickname, ‘whispering bats’.

Their population seems to be stable in the UK but, like many species of bat, it is still threatened by habitat loss (and so loss of roosting and hunting sites) and insecticides impacting prey numbers.

If you’d like to help bats, consider creating a pond and wild spaces in your garden, putting up a bat box, keeping cats indoors at night, reducing artificial lighting, and planting night-scented flowers.
