We had a massive storm go through. High winds all day. The screen door kept banging. I found out why. Thankfully we don't have to buy a brand new system. There are parts.
🎁 I'd sent a wee parcel to Bryony, in Vancouver. She turned 7 this week. They phoned us and we began to chat. We sent money, as we don't know them very well, or what might be suitable. Jesse sent a photo after Bryony explained that she'd bought roller skates! Isn't she cute?!
🦇Did I tell you Joe tried to catch a bat in the house on election night at midnight in the living room? He fetched the fishing net, while I was trying to sleep. No luck. I was too tired to get up.
As we were on the phone, Grampa yelled, "There's the bat!" Oh sigh. I quickly said goodbye to Jesse and Bryony and spotted said bat. It was on the chimney brick. Perfect. It's not our first bat, won't be our last.
I sent Joe to the door, ready when I captured it to let it go. It worked, I held up the net leaning over the back deck, and as I did so, another bat circled me and the net. Our captured bat took up off out of the net. I was so happy it found its friend!

The winds have been crazy here in North Dakota as well. Hopefully today will be better, we have a roof to put on a building!

Oooh I remember my first pari of rollers - and I was seven! YAM xx
They would drive me batty.
The bat would freak me out.
Hello,
So glad the bat was caught and released.
Take care, have a great day!
There is lots of wind damage up this way. Deep River and points west took an awful kicking and lots their power. Our's flickered a lot but didn't stay off for any length of time. The old TV antenna singing in the wind drove me batty! I had to move into the spare room on the other side of the house. My cat then drove me batty because I was somewhere other than where I was supposed to be. Oh man, what a night.
Ha, glad you set him free !
Happy bat rescue! So fun to see what a 7 year old likes these days! Indeed, being a long distance gran is guesswork.
Thank you for saving and freeing the bat. I hope the storm damage is minimal.
I had bats when I lived in Missouri. They lived in my next door neighbor's attic. I've seen none since I moved here.
You are getting the high winds and rain like us. Not a lot of fun.
Bats are kind of dozy when they get in a house. I haven't seen a bat here for years. they've been killed off by disease.
