I wanted to wish John "Happy Birthda"y, and thank you again for a wonderful stay, but I somehow didn't get you email saved right on my Android. I also wanted to tell you about my anticipated "Chuck Harris" blog, which has been approved by Chuck and his wife!<br /><br />Anyway - would you send me your email address to "jamesskon@gmail.com"?<br /><br />JimJim Skonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05046761500892573775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501437224497800843.post-15124517495418220852010-07-20T09:35:51.386-07:002010-07-20T09:35:51.386-07:00Hopefully our hand-washing protocol will keep the ...Hopefully our hand-washing protocol will keep the cooties at bay. The bat now lives in a little clear plastic box in our freezer.<br /><br />We've considered a bat box before -- it's been a few years since I read up on it, but I think we need to get it about 10 feet off the hightest point on our roof for easy fly-in access. It would be cool to have more bats.<br /><br />We see a lot of bats this time of year.John Spearehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187638368645707099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501437224497800843.post-22027875023302335422010-07-20T08:56:39.180-07:002010-07-20T08:56:39.180-07:00Yep, as a Certified Wildlife Biologist (I use W.

But its awesome that you've raised a small person with more curiosity than fear. Double-special Kudos.<br /><br />And Anon 6:31 is right, a bat box might be in order (great kid project too)Paxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01267036189651897286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501437224497800843.post-41845813941779392872010-07-19T18:31:07.120-07:002010-07-19T18:31:07.120-07:00Very cool, big!

So I won't say anything. ;) You may wish to get this one tested or freeze it. Rabies is unlikely. Then again, the thing was dying.<br /><br />If Maddie expresses a sudden desire to move to Forks, you can forget about garlic for supper.<br /><br />If you found this one near your house, consider building a bat house. Maybe on the tree house.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
