I’m talking looking out your window, what mammals, birds, reptiles, cool bugs, or other critters do you occasionally see?

    Well, there’s one that got stuck in my fly screen one summer night a couple years ago. I got a good minute to look at it before it freed its claws from the net 😊

    It was an Alcathoe bat if I’m not mistaken. Of the species that live in my region, it’s the one that’s most similar anyway.

      I had one in bed with me, 20 years ago in Wisconsin. Was sleeping on the floor in my mom’s room, felt something weird on my leg at 3 am, lifted the sheet and out flew a bat. Wound up calling the nonemegency police who came and got it out in a pillow case. It’s just as well I didn’t know how easy and horrible it is to get rabies or I’d have really freaked out. Never got a good look at it though.
