Some unusual thing flying in the living room
It was a baby bat! I've never seen a bat flying in someone's kitchen before, so I was quite surprised. I quickly called my sisters(because my brother's in Canada) to see what I found.
We poked at its very soft body and tried getting it to open and close it's wings. We were able to see its tiny feet Which you can see on the left side of its body. It was a very fascinating fellow.
We managed to get it on the broom and take it outside to let it go. It flew away as if nothing was wrong. The funny thing about all this is that we just saw "Batman begins" a couple days ago.
We get quite a lot of them around the countryside here, there have even been some in our church, but in the UK they are protected and it's illegal to touch them without a special handling license...
They really do look like a mouse with wings like you said, John.
Hey Leta,
I didn't realize that many other people have seen bats too.
I hear that you and Adam are going to Korea soon. I hope that you'll get used to it.
