I was sitting at the desk in my observatory last night getting ready to start taking some spectra images when I moved the books that I leave on the desk. A small furry object appeared. Fortunately I had my gloves with me- it gets pretty cold her even in Spring.:D
I picked him up and put him outside under the observatory roof and he was gone a few hours later.

I went to the observatory last night and he wasn't there.I have had a bat before but it usually hides under the edge of the sarking on the roof.

He is a "micro bat" and they seem to be solitary animals. They are suppose to be good at reducing the insects.
I certainly wouldnt want a colony of them taking up residence in the observatory.
