BTW can you go catch some and send them here to eat the mosquitoes.....:D
We have a few bats around here but not that many. I'm thinking about getting some bat houses.

Its out by Retama Park the racetrack and I have a friend out there. He saw them coming out and called me. Then I saw them on the radar. It was not raining out there, not even that cloudy and it was right at sunset. I have seen them come out before.

Its dangerous to get real close because rattlesnakes and all sorts of other critters come up to eat any of the sick ones that might not make it on the fly out. It only happens around sunset and for some reason they come out real dense certain summer evenings and it shows up on the radar.

I can send you some if you can get Morty to come down
here and we can use his hair as a giant net.

It wouldn't be the first time.

Quite a visual on that...:D

Your bat thread got me to thinking about caves.
When I used to tour New Zealand we did the Waitomo Caves, the glow-worms cave.
The caves were really beautiful with stalagmites and stalactites and then you took a boat ride in the black water to view the glow-worms.
After awhile it really freaked me out that the glow-worms would fall on my head, so I had to wear a hat.
It was a unique experience.

Ever stick pins in your belly?






Boy now that's fun.

FGFan 07-01-2008 02:18 PM

Ever had glow-worms fall on your head?







They would get stuck in your giant hair net....:p

But you don't have to GO HALF WAY ACROSS THE WORLD.....to stick pins in your belly.

And what they are, gross....and you wonder why I wore a big brimmed hat.




Sorry pgardin for going off the topic of bats here, ya know how it is in these strange rooms.
Sort of related though, caves and things that live in them.

But back to cross or around, well you cross a continent or an ocean, but you go around the world. That's just the way it is.....:p

Usually when one hides, they don't announce where they are.:rolleyes:

Mortimer 07-02-2008 12:44 PM

I said it was dumb.







No one will find me now because I am not going to say where I am.

FGFan 07-02-2008 12:53 PM

We'll still find you....:p

I have lost boys to attend to...and must starch my wings, so I can't play hide and seek with you right now.

Rileyoriley 07-02-2008 12:59 PM

I wouldn't worry Mort. She seems to have lost some boys too.:D
