Hi Rosemary,
I actually don't live in BF or Saxton's River, but outside Saxton's River and over the
covered bridge. I just get my mail in BF.
I talked to another clayart friend yesterday about this and she says where she lives
in Oberlin the police dept has bat nets that they loan out. It is like a butterfly net
but very very long and you slam it down over the resting bat and he flies down to
the end and it is then easy to put it out of doors.
We are in the midst right now of making sure there are no places for such wildlife
to get in here.
Sorry Rosemary to hear of your bat episodes. It will give me something to ask
about down on Mexican night at the cafe.
