Bat in the box! So here's what's going on with the bat: -I called some rehabbers for advice. None of them do bats, but they suggested putting her in a box with some water and towels. -I am very aware of the rabies threat and have been using leather gloves and handling at a distance. With a stick. -If the bat hasn't flown away before I go to bed, she'll spend the night in our heated garage in the box with a towel overtop of it. -The bat isn't behaving too weird- her movements have been slow and she was grounded, and I think it's because of the storm we had last night. Cross your fingers she flies out soon!

Happy International Goth Day! If you met me on the street today, you wouldn’t believe me if I told you I was Goth. All dressed in a plaid chambray gauze fit and flare dress, hair in a high ponytail, I’m more of a vision of a hot summer day in 1950. Even for those who question if I am, I will always be Goth. The clothing may change, but what I feel in my my dark heart, never will. Not everyone…

Their imagery is everywhere, but, what about bats in historical pieces of art or art in general. Cats, dogs, birds and insects show up all of…
