Once we had dozens of bats emptying out of our barn at dusk each night. This year I've seen one bat in the barn all summer - very sad. Strangely, though, I've had a bat in my bedroom twice in 2 weeks. Knowing there were few if any other bats to join it, I just opened the window screen and left it open all night so it could find its way out.

One of my favorite activities used to be to drive my boat at dusk while the bats swooped around me.
