Western Red Bat (Lasiurus frantzii)

Description

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.
