Texas—evening bat found in bat house that was taken down—photo available

January 1, 2022 @ 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM

An young evening  bat was brought to us by a family who found her when they took down a bat house in Weatherford, TX. They did not realize she was in there as all the other bats had left for the winter. Although we recommend against removing bat houses when bats may be taking shelter in them, this time it was lucky they did. This little one would likely had frozen to death have if she hadn’t been discovered. Little “Cookie” will ride out the cold weather with us and others of her kind. When insects are once again plentiful in the spring, she will be assessed for release. If for some reason she is unable to go free, she will stay with us for as long as she needs to.
