We had a bat in the lake house once years ago.
We had a 2 story great room and the bat was perched at the top near the fireplace.
I come inside and my 8 year old son is shooting a BB gun at the ceiling. I say “what are you doing”!?!
He says I’m trying to kill a bat! Huh?
Sure enough it was a bat.
So, we watched the bat for a while and it never moved. Just perched upside down.
Later in the day the bat was gone. Never saw it again. Looked all over. Never saw another bat in the house. Very strange.
