He fluttered through our bedroom around midnight but when we turned on all the lights and opened the front door he decided to take a nap on the wall over above our bedroom door. I'm glad he was able to sleep because we sure couldn't.
I tried to shoo him away with a broom but he just hissed at me and showed his sharp little teeth.
Finally, around 5:30 I improvised a Bat-net® and moved him out the front door as gently as I could.
The ride shook him up a little but he eventually recovered and flew away, after posing for a quick photo or two.
WTF ? wow, thats a big bat ! its an omen, a batman book is down the pike !
ReplyDelete:D to funny!!
ReplyDeleteAn omen. Ha! Kevin, if you dress as a bat it will strike terror into the hearts of criminals. They're a cowardly, superstitious lot.
ReplyDeleteThe bats in my house (2, ever) were floor bound and had to face off w/ cats. The dog was too freaked out. Our net was a trash can, up-ended, and a record jacket slid under. Instant bat-can. One cat lost a perfectly circular patch of hair. A bloodless confrontation.
"Good lord! You're even more of a bat than I am! I've never seen such a realistic disguise... that was no costume!" (Secret Origins 39 - te-he)
ReplyDeleteHaha, it's so cute! And somehow scary at the same time, oh mother nature, you sadistic woman.
ReplyDeleteWhich reminds me, your Man Bat story is still one of my favorites. When I was a kid we didn't have a belfry, but we did get the occasional bat in the attic.
ReplyDelete"... if you dress as a bat it will strike terror into the hearts of criminals."
ReplyDeleteThe criminal element of Ster... I mean Queerwater Creek?
It sure struck fear into me and I haven't committed a crime in weeks.
