A bat in my bedroom!!
I had a rude awakening this morning at 2.45 am to find a bat flying over my head trapped in my room. He came in through the slightly open sash window but as the curtain was closed, he got in but couldn't get back out. I volunteered my husband to get out of bed to open the curtains and windows as I'm quite generous like that. Our bat flew out after a stroll on the beams and a final lap of the room.
I can only assume he flew in whilst chasing something. I wish i had of peeped a bit more from under my duvet, i have no idea what breed he was only that he was very, very cute.

90% of British bats are pipistrelles, so all bats are pipistrelles until proved otherwise!
Wow! Have seen them in flight at dusk, but never up close and personal!
In that case i look forward to seeing 'Pip' and his friends soon!
They must all live near by as they have a flight path around our house that they do every night at dusk without fail.
I'm going to brave and have my window open tonight. I was baking last night as i daren't open it!
