[QUOTE="kormath, post: 93940, member: 4199"] they're not vampire bats ;) actually really cool critters. My brother has a family of them living in the grain silo near his place. We were working on his roof this past August and in the evening after the sun set and the bugs came out thick we could hear them fly by feeding. It was really cool. never once did they get close enough to touch us or get stuck in hair, that's all just a myth, or more likely the person freaked out and the bat got caught in the hair flying about. Their sonar is sensitive enough to pick up each strand of hair ;) Anyway reviving this old post as he (or she) came back yesterday but didn't hang out long. Not sure what it is about that cement column but he stayed there from about 9am until it started raining during lunch. Then he flew off to a nearby tree for shelter. [/QUOTE]
