Goat Man, Mouse man, Cat Man, Snake Man and now……………. Bat Man
Another tale to tell.
The weather is going cooler, and windier, and so quite a few leaves get blown into the pool and they need taking out.
Recently saw a few – they will stay on the surface and then they will sink to the bottom – from a fruit tree.
So, I get the extended mesh net to scoop them out.
One ‘leaf’ was moving and on closer inspection it turned out to be a small bat!!
He was struggling with his swimming stroke – I can’t recommend the ‘BATterfly’ or indeed the ‘BATstroke’.
On the basis they only fly at night he may have been in the water for a good few hour’s!
Get him out of the water and into the sun. Then I put him in a small cardboard box so he can keep warm in the sunshine and not be bothered by the breeze.
20 minutes later he (or she) is off – another success!!

Why Didn’t I Think About That?
Howdy from East Texas where the weather is unusual to say the least. Here it is late May going into June and we have yet to cross 90f yet and as I type this, it is raining yet again and the temperature on the porch is a mild 66f. Yes, we Texans always like to talk about the weather because if you don’t like what it is now just wait an hour and it will be totally different.
