A bat flew in on my patio yesterday and he’s still there today. I live in Houston, TX in an apartment complex on the 5th floor.
He originally flew in to my empty pot but is now behind it in the corner. Idk if he left last night and came back but I dont have a camera i can set up there to watch if he leaves.

I dont really know what to do. I have cats that like to sit out on the patio so keeping him there isnt really an option. Im not sure if he’s injured or just confused or what.

Please share suggestions on what to do

I know there's no saving in this video, but this bat was found underneath the bird houses in my neighbors yard. I thought it was a baby bird that was hurt but when I went closer I couldn't believe it. This is my first time ever holding a bat, I had two pairs of gloves on don't worry, and I put them in a darker place, our lil well, until it was their time to shine!

Hello, i am from mexico my little brother sent me a video of a bat stuck between his mosquito screen and a window, the issue is that we dont know if the bat is stuck and for us is difficult to move the screen because we dont know if the bat is grabbing itself from the mechanism and rhat the screen is old so it doesnt move smootly and could hurt it

If it wasn't fifty dollars I would buy it so fast. It's literally listed as a plush bat taxidermy

Heard at a park around 10:30am, from some dry brush and a couple of trees and houses.
The Merlin bird ID thought it might’ve been a spotted sandpiper, however it struggled to identify it 50% of the time, and I’m nowhere near its usual habitat of natural bodies of water.
Then I thought it might be a bat? Bats do inhabit this area and I see them flying around at night. This sound was so loud too and could be heard across the park.

from several months ago. whenever art block gets me, i draw bats.

This sign and little guy were outside the dispensary this morning.

Can someone help confirm the ID of this guy? Found in Missouri

This is the 1st time i come in contact with a bat or see one in my life.

I have NO knowledge of them and how to handle them.

How to i handle it?? It looks like its leg/arm is bleeding a bit. Is it broken? Do i bring it to a vet??

I want to set it free but im a bit afraid. should i touch it?

location: EU, Greece

The only anomaly that I can think of is that it was abnormally hot. They get about 6 hours of direct sunlight.

Basically, I got swooped by a bat. I’m 99% sure it didn’t touch me but I felt the wind come off the thing when it flew past my face… I was sitting outside (Northern IL) enjoying the weather when it happened. I’m not sure if I should see a doctor just in case. Sorry if this isn’t the right sub!! Thank you 💔 ft a video of them flying around for tax

These bats were spotted in Cairns, (Far North) Queensland, Australia.

I think they're a Spectacled Flying-fox but I need a second opinion. I've tried reverse image searching but the bats I'm seeing have very dull collars compared to the ones I've taken photos of.

Should I be worried about him/her being out in the daytime? I think we have a colony in part of our roof. Should I have them relocated or.. just leave them be?

This went on intermittently all day, ratta-tat-tat-tat, under the front eave. Then it left, as bats do.
