I saw our bats!!! Sharky stepped outside after sunset to have a cigarette and came back in calling for me. I went out side and got to see our bats flying around, swooping in erratic figure eights above the driveway from Mrs. I's yard into ours and back again, obviously eating mosquitoes and other flying insects. They were all small grey bats, but one was really small - we think it might have been a "teenager". LOL They were so cool to watch! Tried to look them up when we came back in and we think they are the Eastern Pipistrelle bat. It was the only one that fit the size and colour. In the Wikipedia entry, they describe the flight as moth-like - definitely fits in with what we've seen. I'm so excited!
