Had a SUPRISE visitor the other night!  Right smack dab in the middle of Ghost-hunters!

Instead of shushin' it out  right away....of course I grabbed my camera!

My dog was goin' crazy as it circled my living room, so after a few I just opened the front door and it flew off into the night!

Now to figure out HOW it got inside and hope there are no more!

J:scared:E

Do you have a woodstove?  Or a chimney with an open flue?  I used to get birds in the house in the summer through the chimney pipe of my woodstove in Virginia; it had a LONG pipe, about 15 feet, and was only about six inches diameter, but they would manage to get into the stove (making my cats crazy!  Bird TV Channel!).  The other chance might be an opening to the attic, like in a closet?  Or an opening in the wall, like where an outlet or switch plate might be missing?  Got me...but better you than me with this kind of visitor!

WOOH! What a great shot you got there. Well done :)  Oh and from where it came?  Thats the question :)

Excellent shot - well done . They don't fly slow - I know I've had plenty of them in my front room before.
Did you have a window open?  - in which case it was probably pursuing an insect drawn towards the light .

My visitors were due to a colony living in the loft space. The little 'uns seem to come out about this time of year and fall from the eaves. They then crawl back up the wall, but enter any open window on their way   

Unfortunately some of them get exhausted from the effort and I end up having to revive them with some honey in water before they get their strength back and I put them near the top of the wall by the opening to find their way back into the loft. 

They're fascinating creatures - I love them.

The only disturbing moment  I've had was when my mother in law came to visit for the first time at our new home (I was not very used to seeing them at that time ) and I caught sight of one just appearing over the back of the sofa right behind her -  lol.   I looked at the wife and she at me !

I wanted to point and shout -  BAT !         but I thought MiL might get the wrong idea

Fortunately MiL decided it was time to retire, and I rescued the poor little fella after she had left the room .

 Onslow

:b_funny:
So many people with bats in their belfry!!!
I love watching them, they are so good at what they do!
Never had one in the house, but one time my husband and I went exploring in an abandoned mine shaft and one flew back and forth between us before I leaned closer to the wall to let him out! Very cool!

We had in my work one wednesday a tiny bad. It was so cute. We could catch it and help it out. Funny,  but the next wednesday we had one more. Also that I could catch and help out. We almost waited next wednesday for one more LOL ! And we never found out where they came in.
BTW, we had HUGE frogs in the basement, but thats another story :)

:lol::lol::lol: I gotta tell that one to my mom:lol:

That is so cool! Freaky, but cool. I would do just what you did too. Get the camera!
