The Painted Bat (Kerivoula picta), as it is aptly named, is a small species of bat that grows to have a body length of 3 to 5.5 cm, tail length of 3 to 5.5 cm, and a wingspan of 18–30 cm. They’re tiny yet stunningly colored with bright orange or scarlet bodies, black wings and orange along the fingers.
The reason for the unique coloration is due to the fact that these bats like to roost in vulnerable locations such as in the suspended nests of weaver finches and sunbirds or under the eaves of African huts. The bright colors act as a warning to other creatures that this is a “scary bat” and to leave it alone. (Source)

Little Planet Astro Camp : Day and night on this little planet look a lot like day and night on planet Earth. In fact, the images used to construct the little planet projection, a digitally warped and stitched mosaic covering 360x180 degrees, were taken during day and night near Tarjn, Hungary, planet Earth. They span a successful 33-hour-long photo experiment at Julys Hungarian Astronomical Association Astro Camp. The time-series composite follows the solar disk in 20 minute intervals from sunrise to sunset and over six hours of star trails in the northern night sky centered on the North Celestial Pole near bright star Polaris. The orbiting International Space Station traced the offset arc across the northern night. Below the little planets nightside horizon, red light lamps of fellow astro-campers left the night-long, dancing trails. via NASA
