Bats hear with their ears and echolocation; it picks up vibrations and then waits for them to come back to the ear. See the related question below.

Why can't humans hear the sound of a bat?

Bats use echolocation to sense movement and their surroundings. We cannot hear the high pitched noise they emit because it is of a higher frequency than the human ear can register. There are some sounds of a bat that we can hear, but the sounds that we can't hear is because the squeaks are so high that you really need ultrasound to hear it.
