Silver-haired bats carry a NatureServe S3 vulnerable rank in Nebraska, and of the state’s 35 records, 31 appear in GBIF and 13 on iNaturalist, so specimen and survey data still make up much of what’s documented about this solitary, tree-roosting bat.
September alone accounts for 13 of the year’s monthly-tallied sightings, more than a third of the total, consistent with one of North America’s most migratory bats passing through western Nebraska’s buttes and river valleys on its way south for the winter.
