You have to be batty to live in a place like this!

     Actually the house was very nice----had a few issues, but what house doesn’t.

     What was really interesting about this house was the house that was built onto the house.  Now some of you might be thinking “Mother-in-law” or “rental,” but that would not be accurate no matter how much you like your mother-in-law or how much she either acts batty or drives you batty. 

     This house is literally a “Bat House.” 

     There were bats at home too----it being daylight and them being nocturnal and all.

     With a strong flashlight I was able to look up along the siding and into the bad house and see a bat (center of picture).  Can you see it too?

     When I first saw the bat house, I had no clue what it was and had to ask the seller.  Bats are super beneficial in the environment and can eat between 4,000 and 8,000 mosquitoes in one night----now how can anyone be against that? 

     Now I don’t feel so batty (well daffy anyway).
