In the summertime, Mexican freetail bats nest in the collapsed limestone cave next to my house.  They really help keep the mosquitoes in check.  Twice, when standing at the corner of my second-story deck after sunset, a bat has misjudged his flightpath and the tip of his wing brushed my forehead.

Our neighbour once had two of them in her apartment. I'm not sure who was scared most - she or the poor bats.

Anyway I helped her getting them out through a window and I'm fairly sure they found their way back into my batcav-uh- never mind.

This is too cute! We have a lot of bats in our neighborhood. It's so cool to watch them flit around the tops of the pine trees in the back yard at dusk. This summer I'm going to make a bat house to encourage them to stick around. We do live in MN after all--mosquito capital of the world--or at least the midwest.  That last pic is brilliant!

BTW--Nice to see a post from you again. It's been awhile!

So cute!  Good for you saving that sweet little bug-eater.  When we were kids we had fruit bats around the neighborhood.  I don't know if they really ate fruit but it seemed logical at the time so my sister and I would throw pieces of apple and grapes into the night sky and marvel when we'd hear a swoop! and the pieces wouldn't fall back down.  Bats are sweet.
