My fellow rescuer Robin told me this morning about a bat rescue he did yesterday because I was unavailable. When he arrived the lady asked "Are you the bat man?"

I took a quick wander around the back of the office shed this afternoon, looking at the weeds and wondering if I should hit them with something horribly poisonous and not terribly environmentally friendly, when I spotted a flash of color waving amongst the dock.

A poppy! It stands about a metre tall, and has petals of a very pale purple colour with dark purple centres. I noticed the calixes of the unopened flowers were covered in a thick wirey hair, unlike the soft down I remember on my grandfather's poppies. One of the flowers had lost its petals leaving behind a fat, teardrop-shaped seed case with a- um- flat cap.

um.

sort of like an opium poppy's

um.

I have to take them to task with their description. Bats have mastered the art of smooth, controlled flight. And they have excellent eyesight.
