    There was the time that Elon stopped by Zuckerberg's house for a meeting with Zuckerberber but found that the Z-Man had been called away.
    As Elon stood at the front door he could faintly hear cries of alarm from within:
    Help,please help, I'm stuck !"
    Fearing the worst, Elon went rhrough the unlocked front door. Going from room to room Elon finally found Mrs. Zuckerberg in the kitchen, bent over rhe sink, with her hand stuck down the drain

    .........and that's how things happen.

    I went out to measure how high the bat house is but the tape measurer kept wanting to bend so I gave up.

    But while I was out there at around 8:15pm, that's the time they start to move and come out. So...

    I stayed there since I saw one bat flying around already and waited to see if the rest would come out.

    Come out they did! :o:D I counted 30 in about 5 minutes or less. So I have at least 31now.

    There's plenty of fields around me and I guess they're ok with a pond behind me and then some BIG retention ponds at UNCW a block or two away. I read they need water bigtime.

    I might count them tomorrow night with my wife. It's like a "Wild Kingdom" episode. B) I stood beside the table with the shingles on it on the deck. Great view of the bats exiting too.

    Now this is a bat house.

    At the "Vermont Public" [erstwhile VPR] studios/HQ in Colchester, VT. B)

    In all seriousness, @Tony M your bat house is very cool -- especially given that it appears to be sold out for the season. :) Bats are better than insecticides.
    That said, you might want to get the rabies vaccine. Mrs. H got vaccinated for rabies this year -- before traveling to Guyana on a birding trip. Cheap insurance, you know? :|

    Isn't that the one where the homeowner got in trouble with the HOA because "bat houses" weren't allowed, so he built a "structure", basically **** to the HOA? (IIRC, this structure was allowed per the covenant rules, even though bat houses were a no-no)

    The censorship on some things is ridiculous at times.

    Most impressive young Jedi!
    There is a backstory -- and I didn't know it, 'til now.

    Doc, it may have been another structure. I can't seem to find the original story I was referring too (it was years ago) but did run across this meme, created as a result of it (again, IIRC)...

    Maybe there's a big bat house craze?!
    I endorse that.

    "It's like a "Wild Kingdom" episode"

    (Tony M): "Geez, look at all the bats ! ....485, 486, 487....where are they all coming from, Honey ?"

    (Mrs. Tony) : " In rhe name of gawd, Tony. ..HELP ! They're swarming my face . ..
    ...mmmph.....mmmph......
    ...can't ........breathe ...."

    (Tony M) : "Don't worry, Honey, with our Mutual of Omaha Insurance I'm sure that you're covered for whatever is happening underneath that mound of bats on your head. "

    Yep, just like "Wild Kingdom"


    DISCLAIMER: It's very cool what Tony M is doing and , no, I don't want Mrs. Tony M
    to get smooshed by swarms of bats. 👍

    Mrs. Tony M says thank you for thinking about her safety. She and I got a big laugh from your scenario.

    I counted 52 tonight. :o:D
