I just doing my end of year rescue report database and I honestly believe it has been the busiest year yet, even in the mist of this new covid world.

A bat found during the day time (inside or outside) is usually a sign that something is wrong with the bat. It may be as simple as being misplaced due to disturbance, or as serious as being critically injured by a preditor, either way they shouldn't be visable during the day so need help.
