In our belfry

Sister M. woke Elder Mac at 3:30AM to tell him something was flying around the bedroom ceiling. A big moth? A bird?? No, a BAT. While Elder Mac perfected an impressive duck-and-smack maneuver with a fly swatter, Sister Mac offered helpful suggestions from well under the covers. Then a second one joined the first! After both bats were stunned we dumped them out the window.

Russians here had never heard of such a thing happening. They rarely see a bat--or "flying mouse."
