THE BAT:
The ordinary bat that flies around at night,
a remarkable nimble creature in the air,
cannot take off from a level place.
If it is placed on the floor or flat
ground, all it can do is shuffle about
helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it
reaches some slight elevation from which it
can throw itself into the air. Then, at once,
it takes off like a flash.
James....We had a lot of bats on the farm I grew up on....I never knew this about them......Thanks!
Hope you have a great day!---Rob

Hi James, boydo we have bats. Milloins os them. In the evening you can sit and watch the bats take flight from the Carlsbad Caverns National Park.
It is a sight to behold.

Since I am somewhat upset about the treament some people are getting in the current foreclosure mess, it is good to know that some animals have the same problems as lenders, they cannot function on a level playing field! Enjoy the day!
Good morning, James. Very interesting tidbit of information. I did not know that either...
James, Very interesting, learn something new everyday. Started off learning early on this day. Thanks!
James - we got a bat in our home one night through an open window - not pretty! Interesting trivia!
Good morning James,
Very interesting, I did not know that about bats. Around here you normally only see two bats at a time in the dark sky.
Make it a great day !!
