A lady in San Diego, CA, found an evening bat with a wing injury in her patio umbrella when she opened it. We believe the injury came from the wing getting stuck and getting injured when she opened the umbrella. Evening bats are notorious for roosting in the folds of umbrellas and feel very safe there. We provided guidance on how to safely contain the bat and located a bat-trained rescuer in the finder’s area. The bat was transferred to a rescuer where he/she will be assessed for hopeful release back to the wild.
