Moon Bat, Dogs

This bat got in the house, and eventually sought refuge under a spare bed. He/she/its/bat's voice sounded like clicking, although it was high-pitched enough to also be described as squeaking.

"Get away from me, you huge, ugly, scary monster!!!," he translated.

Also, d.a.w.g.s:

Not flapping. Bat capture involved two rounds, the first failed because I didn't want to crush poor little bat under the container I had over him as I tried to slide a top under it...he made it to the edge of the 2nd floor there and took off again.

So by the time we put him outside, he wasn't doing much but being stunned. He was gone in the morning from the bench on the porch, so either recovered, or else got eaten by another critter.

All right, I found your comments in the spam filter, under the glass wool with the charcoal.

Note: I only have powers to rescue the comments on a post I put up at Ther's place.

Imma zombizzle. People are kind of irrational about the whole thing. I've gotten used to it.

Zombies are economic stimulus, on account of their being "Shovel-Ready"...

It's Wednesday so I spent the afternoon with many cranky bats...

This bat wasn't so easy to wrangle, either, Jennifer.

How big (or little) was that bat, thunder? Fit in the palms for your hands little? I dare say, he looks kinda cute. FOR A BAT.
