    Diffey is so precious poor thing she was shivering out in the cold. I'm glad the worker found her and thank you Meg for going out there day or night to rescue the batties. They're so tiny but take such a big place in our hearts. Hang in there little sweetie pie❤😘❤🦇❤

    At least you were there to make her as comfortable as possible, and not completely alone and scared. The older I get the more empathy and sympathy I get for just about everything in situations like this. These baby bats are difficult to resist. It is very touching, that when you find one alive and still with its mother that has died, she still has her baby wrapped in her wings, most of the time. Thank you for these posts, Megabattie.

      I can never tell, and despite most viewers saying they can ALWAYS tell from the vid, (with the benefit of the description and hindsight), it could go either way. Diddle Diddle Dumpling - I didn't give her a chance and she went well. A whole heap of bats who were as squidgy as hell all made it, and ones who looked great didn't.
      I don't think she has a chance but she will survive or not, according to what is going on inside her.
