Always Something New

[poliphilo]

My mother called me to say there was a bird in her bedroom- and there was- only it wasn't a bird, it was a bat. Such a tiny little thing- but with such a surprisingly big wing-span. It was resting on the top of the radiator when I showed up and I was afraid it was injured but it didn't seem to be so I helped it to the open window and it flew away. I don't remember ever being so close to a bat before.
