This is some crazy stuff...but we like it !

here is one :







(I hope you appreciate the orientation of the wings, forward swept ...  )

Almost looks as though an owl met a bat - very good

yes indeed, I thought that too when I saw the result 

hybrid animals would be a whole other topic in itself
