Waking Bat

Best on black. We are having the West side of our house painted and they had to take the bat houses down for a couple days. When they first came down, the bats were sleeping but they gradually woke up and flew off. They were wonderful to watch. I love his little ears.
Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs and for your wonderful response to yesterday's Milky Way shot
Wow Jane! Really phenomenal photo of this rarely seen creature in a lovely setting. Big FAV! (I've had bat houses I made up for years, and never any residents. They prefer my attic. LOL)

You have bat houses?!! That is excellent! And they are such interesting bats too - great photo!

Great shot. Did the houses just rest over them and then you were able to take them away, leaving the bats.

@rickster549 most of the bats came with the house and gradually woke and flew. Houses are back up tonight. Hopefully they will return tomorrow morning for some sleep

Love the idea that you have to look twice to see him - hiding in plain sight. And possibly the first time I have regarded a bat as cute! Fav!

Wow! I didn't spot it at first...had to open up pic and really take a better look. Fav.
