Bats can hunt at night because they can 'see' without needing light. This means that they can take advantage of being able to hunt while other predators are not able to prey on them. Basically, bats feed at night for security reasons

And that didn't answer your question. Yes. They are.

Hawks like to eat bats, but most of them fly in the daytime. Bats are at danger from hawks mainly at dusk and dawn. Owls remain a danger all night long. Still, there are few other predators like exist in the daytime.

Bats are animals that fly at night. They use echolocation to navigate and find prey in the dark.
bats though some birds
One mammal i know of is the bat it only hunts at night also its an mammal.
The basic difference between bats and owls is that bats are mammals and owls are birds.

Birds and bats
Night hunter birds, from my point of view, are birds that hunt at night. This includes: owls, night parrots and nightjars. They can also be called 'nocturnal birds'.
Bats are mammals while birds are avians. Bats use echolocation to navigate and hunt, while birds rely on their keen eyesight.
yes birds and bats eat June bugs they stun them and then eat out the bottem of the June bugs *alothough they are not much of a meal so they don't eat them alot* June bugs are mostly seen at night so birds arent exactly the big eater bats would be the biggest eater of them
Both bats and birds are warm-blooded vertebrates.
Bats have fur but birds do not. Bats are mammals that give birth to live young, whereas birds give birth by way of the laying of eggs.
