European Chickadees have been observed entering hollow trees & bludgeoning roosting bats to death, before dragging them out to eat. The bats had their heads pecked open, and were mostly targeted during the winter months.
This extreme predatory behaviour is nothing short of incredible for a tiny colourful European garden songbird - proving that many weird & creepy mysteries may be hidden behind the appearance of any apparently innocent little songbird!
