I'm used to them. When we were kids we caught two with a bucket. Right under a street light. Two of them collided in the air. They fell to the street attached to each other. A friend covered them with a bucket.(We had been catching crawdads earlier) All you could hear was squeaking. After a minute or two the bucket started to jump around. You could hear them flapping around. We realized we had to let them go. I ran over to the bucket and flipped it over and ran as fast as I could. I turned around and they flew off in opposite directions. They must have been mating. One of the strangest things I've ever seen.

Coitus Interruptus...Shame on you...How would you like it if a bat flew into your bedroom with a bucket while you were....Nevermind, it must not have been very good anyway if they flew off in different directions, afterwards ;)

I caught a bat in a 5 gallon bucket (put a screen over the top, he hung from the screen) that prior to that capture, had contained 42 snakes that we had hunted up from the creek...Strange parallel, huh?

BTW...If you pitch coins up in the air under a streetlight, they'll dive after them...

One of the great things about bats is their large appetite for insects. God knows we have plenty of those, in the South. Especially Mosquitoes.

They will chase anything you throw at them as long as it's not too large. Thats one of the things I had to show my son after the bats showed up. He got a real kick out of it. They truely are masters of flight. They are quite impressive, the way they can change direction in flight.
