This bat was found late in the morning almost drowned in our fish tank in the living room! He eagerly climbed out onto the fish net, promptly shook off just like a dog but in reverse, squeaked, and slept all day inside a cardboard box, drying out and healing his elbow abrasion. I put him out under the bat box that hangs on our house just before sunset, and when his several dozen buddies took flight a bit later... so did he! Not the best photo here, but I was trying not to disturb the little fella.
Dead saguaro. Likely a victim of the hard freeze one year before in Febuary 2011.
Length .3 meters, coming up out of water in small stream to take food from people.
