We knew there were bats on the island but we just got to see one close up. Sooz picked up her boots off the deck this afternoon and hiding underneath was a tiny little bat! He seemed a bit slow- moving but not injured (or rabid) so I scooped him up in a plant pot and took him downhill to the woods. He scampered up a bush and immediately hung upside-down. How cute!
We like bats in our family. Grant had a teacher who was crazy about them so he learned more than a usual amount on the subject in school. They also eat lots of mosquitoes, which makes them all right in my book.
