So Wildflowers I am Bored, and so I decided to have one more Critter of the Month and Give Away.

That’s right Bats. I love them too. Do any of you? Over the next 30 days I will be posting photos of Bats and information. Maybe some things about them that you did not know. I know I learned a few things about them during my research this past week, while I sat here on my Bum, bored to tears! So, if you have information you would like to share about them please do.
Laura, for your information so you know what has been going on:-) For the past 4 months for fun I have been posting Critters of the Month and having Give Aways. Debbie Klann won the first give away for Bees. Chris Kenney won the Give Away for Lady Bugs. Her and her daughter Fallon had fun with it coloring me pages from the color book I sent. They are on my refrigerator for all to see. Karen Martell won the Give Away for Crows and last but not least, Heather Neeper won the Give Away for Tarantulas, and I believe still having fun with it;-)
All you need to do is post at least once to let me know you're interested, having fun with the thread and I will put your name in my Bat Hat. Yep, I just may have a Bat Hat, Hee, Hee.
So let the fun begin;-)

| Debbie, I don’t mind bats at all, in fact we had a fun game we played when I was a child. On summer nights my whole family would sit under the shade trees after supper and drink sweet tea and play games. We would play games like freeze tag, catch lightening bugs in jars, and “wooly bat”. Just as it was getting dusky dark, we would put a rubber ball in a tube sock, then twirl it around like a sling and toss it in the air as high as we could. While we were twirling the sock, we would all chant, “ wooly bat, wooly bat, come and get your wooly hat”. The bats flying around would dive after it and send us running, squealing and laughing. The thrill of it was exciting, but like my mama said, “I don’t think there will be any more laughing when one of those bats get caught in your hair”. Fun memories!! |

| When playing in the woods once, we found a baby bat that had fallen out of the tree. It was pale grey with wings and slick skin, and we thought it was a strange moth. So I picked it up and carried it to the house to ask my mama what kind it was. She about had a heart attack and asked me, why would you pick up such a thing? It was only about the size of the first section of my pinky finger. She told us it was a baby bat, and that it was already dead. We thought it was just sleeping. |

Awww, were you sad when you found out it was dead? Did you bury it? I have a small dead bat with my collection of animal skulls, claws, feathers and what ever else I find on the beach or in the woods. A lot of folks, family think I am crazy. But I am not just curious.
