Woo-Hoo!
We love bats. Hubby and I would love to put a bat-house outside our dining room window. Unfortunately, our co-op rules don't allow that.
We will be taking a twilight walk in Prospect Park to learn about and enjoy the company of bats. I'm really looking forward to that!
Years ago we spent a holiday in St. Eustasius. It was a strange place and the hotel was nestled right under a high cliff. On the first evening we were there, our group was enjoying drinks on the lawn when the cliff erupted.
"Ooh", one woman said, "What are these wonderful birds that fly out at sunset"
"They ain't birds. They're bats."
There are times when we don't enjoy bats. Last summer we attended a family reunion. The children were being put to bed and the adults were enjoying a glass of champagne in the dining room. It was a balmy night and we turned off the lights while we talked.
Suddenly, something swooped low over my head.
"Oh, those are the bats. They nest in the attic and come down when we turn the lights off."
I like bats very much. I just don't like them in enclosed spaces. Hubby and I were very happy that we were staying at a hotel instead of the family home. I did have to worry a bit about two infants sleeping in a house with bats flying around inside.
