I'm no tree huggin' vegetarian but I do love bats. I like to lie on top of the hay when we get it all in and have the barn bats swoop with in inches of me.Lannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16018584509455303394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-40419124074408787042011-08-01T01:54:29.209-05:002011-08-01T01:54:29.209-05:00I hope he doesn't get his tights and cape dirt...I hope he doesn't get his tights and cape dirty while working on the lift.

A few years ago, at our house in the country, we had a room air conditioner in my bedroom. I was in bed reading and a bat got in a crack somehow and was buzzing the room. I freaked so my middle daughter had to save me. She took the net we used in the koi pond and did a capture and release on the bat.

We used to get them in the old place pretty frequently. For some reason they would always get in the shower and not be able to get out....they would fly around and around and not find the open place at the top. Very odd. Eventually they would settle on the water spiket and grip on for dear life. I could wrap a towel around them, slide them off and relocate them to the outside. Very beautiful creatures up close. They would wrap there wings all around the spiket like arms. Hope yours successfully relocate.Tami Weingartnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00162998790940785630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-66814071220913957632011-07-30T08:44:32.180-05:002011-07-30T08:44:32.180-05:00Hmmm, I thought Batman worked at night.

A lady even filmed the bats trying to return to her attic while sitting in her car. Smart lady. She hung bat houses around her farm so they would have some place to go. It was really eerie watching hundreds of bats flying around her house. Have you thought of taping this?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15642967022028132751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-69857748890402036892011-07-30T08:03:17.173-05:002011-07-30T08:03:17.173-05:00How cool!

Luckily not when we're up there! :-)<br />My brother-in-law was trying to catch one flying around the cabin one night and it flew into the bedroom where my sister-in-law was in bed. She threw the covers over her head when it flew in the room. Then it disappeared. My brother-in-law could not find it. When my s-i-l threw the covers back to get out of bed...the bat was in the bed with her! When she threw the blankets up the first time, the blanket must have caught the bat!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14858720522828231380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-87066808558024908652011-07-30T07:48:42.818-05:002011-07-30T07:48:42.818-05:00What a cool profession!
