Aww, poor guy.
As a pre-emptive post to those who say bats aren't cute...enh! OH LOOK AT HIS LITTLE SWEET CLIMBIN FACE!
Aww, poor guy.
Ahhh! Bats! They are awesome! We once had one attached to our house. He must've gotten lost at night and needed a place to crash. Actually, we were worried about him, having never seen a bat on a house in broad daylight, but he was okay. He'd only squirm and move his wee paw a little to block out da sun while he was sleepin'. Ahn!
Never knew a bat could be so cute!
aww...
Wow--what an odd photo op!
Never knew a bat could be so cute!
um... why is he walking? Up stairs no less?? Ehn.
This is almost cute-or-sad. Why is he climbing instead of flying? Are his wings hurt? D: Though I'm a little concerned, I still find this absolutely adorable!
Aw, his little ears are so cute! I like bats.

Sillies! Those aren't stairs. Mr. Batty McFlappersons is climbing up to bed inside the slats of someone's roof vent.
When I saw the bats in the Bronx zoo (they have a BIG bat exhib), the sweetest thing was the mom-bats (rhymes with wombats) holding their bebehs in their wings while hanging upside down.
Well Yes it is a cute picture and bats are ultra cool but His sweet Climbing Face???? Have I lost my mind? I am looking at the back of him. Maybe I am missing a picture here? A CO extreme close up perhaps?
Aw, his little ears are so cute! I like bats.
I love kittehs and puppehs and buns and hedgies etc. but it is so delightful to see something non-traditionally cute! He definitely looks like he's headed somewhere. I don't know much about bats and hope he is ok. He's definitely CUTE!
Oh, and I forgot to say, "SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" I lof bats and all their leathery, flying, squish-faced, flappiness.

Ditto annie!
I don't see a face either and would LOVE a C.O.X.C.U.
I want to see hees leetle claws!
Annie - you are right, that's not his face.
I heart bats! This little guy is such a doll. Look at his triangular earage.
oh and for those asking - he is probably fine. bats do climb. I also concur with Redzilla that those aren't stairs, it's vent. Mmmm...what a delicious hiding place - lots of unsuspecting bugs!
seriously.. the most ehn moment ever! Ehn!
Is it just my imagination - or are there other bats in the background? I thought I saw a little bat face the next step/slat up.
Bats are awesome. They can be a little awkward if they get trapped in one of the cabins at your summer camp, 'cause it's bloody difficult to catch one without injuring it... but they eat mosquitoes right out of the air. LOTS of them. And little brown bats (like the ones I'm talking about) look like little leathery-winged mice, up close. Too bad we don't have a COXCU here.
Phee -- your eyes do not deceive you.
DLT: ^2
Oh My GAWD. First.. yes yes somebody please get us a C.O.X.C.U. That was the FIRST thing I thought. The second was, I LOVE BATS. I always have. I don't know why. I dig the way they fly through the air at night and it's all wonky and uppity down side to side.. it's never in a straight line like a bird. You KNOW it's a bat by it's flight pattern. And thier little 'feet' amaze me.
1. Bats are great! More bats! Yay for bats! Like little goth hamsters fluttering about. Love them.
2. Yes, they climb. More efficient for short distances.
3. Besides, his WINGS are like a SHIELD OF STEEL!
(Having just shamelessly shown my age, I am off now to hang upside-down from the ceiling with the sloths and the kinkajous and the other practitioners of 180-degree adorability.)
I adore bats! Such oddly cute little creatures.
Agh, are comments working for me yet? D:
Anyways, Phee. I noticed that too. It makes this picture 100x cuter!
Here's a brightened version to see the bats behind the stairs easier:

omg, Kaye! Thank you! I did not see the others *at*all* until you added the brightened picture!
squeeeee!
Anyone else's first impulse to pick him up and place him gently on the top step?
Those spread toesies are killer.
Yay! My love for bats knows few bounds--I even got a bat tattoo. So cute! And good with the feets as well as the wings...
Yes: further proof that this site is the final bat-sion of The Cute.
I LOVE BATS! Such little fuzzy, leathery cuteness! Sure wish I could make one a pet. How cool would that be?
I would pick him (her?) up vewwy gently and place him on the ramp so climbing would be easier.
dear god. I really can't control myself on this one. How cute can that little bat be?!?
hims workin so hard to gets into hims house. ehn!
In theaters this summer...
"Batman: The *Really* Early Years"
I sorta had a pet bat once. I was spending the summer at my cottage one year while there were some renovations being done on my uncle's cottage. When they tore the roof off, the sky was filled with hundreds of the little guys. Anyway, one of them got a little disoriented in the daylight and flew right toward me and landed at my feet. Being about 10 years old and loving every animal I came into contact with, I picked him right up. He curled up in my hand and fell asleep. I put him in a shoebox on the porch and watched him all day (they don't do much when they're sleeping). A few hours later when it got dark he woke up and flew away! Yay for little battie, sad for 10 year old me.
go lil fella!
he is workin awfully hard.
Shikaka!!!
i'm pretty sure hers a wittle bat-lerina just stretching at her barre.
I'll bet that if you could see his face, his tongue would be hanging out one side of his mouth.
It is little StellaLuna!

I think we need to see a C.O.X.C.U. of those splayed bat toes. C'mon, give it up.
I've been to the Congress Street Bridge in Austin to see the bats come out at twilight.
Wow. Just wow.
History: Many years ago, they redid the bridge, including longitudinal expansion joints. Turned out these were just the right width for bats. An estimated 1.5 million bats moved in, creating the world's largest urban bat colony.
The city for a while was unwisely looking to exterminate the bats, but cooler heads prevailed because (a) they eat an *amazing* amount of mosquitos each night, and (b) they've become a major tourist attraction.
TxDOT now specifically designs some bridges and overpasses to attract even more bats.

Eee! I LURV bats!
I heard once that bats can eat 400 mosquitoes an hour. Per bat. That sounds a bit high, but I'll go for it :)
And I'm quite proud of myself; even reading Dracula I still go "awwww" at batties.
Oh my god, look at the prosh little hands! And the one on the bottom stair is just too much!
*asplodes*
Loris - little goth hamsters? I laughed my head off. So true.
Caroline - SHIKAKA!!! Biggest LOL of the day to you two.
Sweet batlingtons. I kees you.
