News Flash from the Bat Cave

It is the middle of winter.
It is freezing cold.
There is ice and snow on the ground.
It is the time of year for all critters in their right minds to curl up somewhere and hibernate.
Especially bats.

Instead, in response to a mysterious malady called White Nose Syndrome, bats are coming out of hibernation too early, are sick and emaciated, and eventually die. The phenomenon is being reported in caves and mines all over the Northeast.

And yes folks, in my house.

I had another winged midnight visitor last week that I chased out of the house and into the freezing wind with my trusty broom, all the while yelling "why aren't you hibernating!"

Now I know why.
I'm sleeping with the lights on again.
