Big Brown Bat
New England is home to both the Little Brown Bat and the Big Brown Bat. While the Big Brown Bat’s wingspan is a bit larger than the Little Brown Bat’s, the physical differences between the two species are quite subtle. If you can get a close look at the face of either one, you stand a good chance of being able to identify it by the shape of its nose and the presence or absence of fur on its face. The nose of the Little Brown Bat is short (and looks as if it has been squished) and it is almost entirely covered with fur, while the Big Brown Bat’s nose is relatively long and there is very little fur between its ear lobes and the tip of its nose.
