Here is Amadeus.
He has taken up residence in my bedroom window again this year. This is his second year here. So that is why I named him today.

Very cool Henry... now we can officially say you have bats in your belfry... just don't get bit... rabies shots are very rough to deal with...

Thats not a bat its Henry in his other form. Are you a vampire bat or fruitbat? The bats I have in my garage are little bug eaters. Fun to watch these critters. :D :?

Henry how cool is that!!

Its a fruit bat isn't it - wow I wish I had one roosting in my window, how fascinating, do you feed him???

We have bats here in Spain but only about the size of your hand!!

Can you try and get a clearer picture, I know this will be difficult due to the light being behind it, but I would appreciate if you could try!!

Thanks for sharing - I love all wildlife!!! :D

I think he eats bugs. He flys around my porch at night eating the bugs that are attracted to my porch light.

I'll try to get another picture of him. Maybe since it is getting cloudy I can get a better picture.
