I have an injured bat in my backyard

A rescuer is coming soon to pick him up.

Oh, good Thumbs up for you for helping the little critter!

I went out to check on him and make sure he has air, it looks like he does have a hole on his wing.

Good job, caring for him and contacting rescue!

We had an article about that "white nose" killing them off in our newspaper just last week. But a whole in the wing, well, that may be more manageable!

Any chance of photos?

I don't have a camera I don't think, I always used my daughters and she is off to college. I may be able to do it on my blackberry...I will try...

Hopefully they can help his little wing heal! We need more healthy bats around, they eat mosquitos!

The nice rescue lady came. She thinks he is sick, his feet were curled and he didn't look too good to her. At least he will humanely go to the bridge. She told me to get Potter a rabies shot tomorrow since he is close to needing one, I will take him to the mobile clinic we have tomorrow. She said he didn't have any sign of kitty trauma so at least potter didn't do it.
