They are too cute to eat!.........................
We had a dead fir tree that was between our hangar and the neighbors house. There was no way to drop it by just cutting it down, so I had to climb it and cut sections from the top down. At about the 80 foot level I accidentally bumped into a bat. It fell most of the way to the ground before opening its wings. I thought that I had killed it so I climbed down to take a look.
It wasn’t dead so I took it in the house and put it in a box padded with a T-shirt and then set the box back outside. After awhile it regained its senses and flew off. This was a full grown bat, but it didn’t weigh anymore than a mouse.
