Gone Batty

I found this dead bat along side the road
when I went to collect the mail.  
He appears to have swooped in front of a car 
and met his fate.


Yes, I know bats carry rabies,
so I was careful in handling him, 
but I couldn't help studying him up close.

His face

Tiny claws on the joint of his wings

 Hind legs are attached closely to the body

Such interesting creatures
