    Bats cannot take off from the ground (or have a very very hard time doing it), so he’s kinda stuck there.

        I didn’t either until I found a bat that was sitting in the same place every day. I even gave him water and stuff but he was there day after day. After maybe a week or more I told my wife and she googled it and we found out that he was actually stuck there. I picked him up in a solo cup and gently placed him on a low hanging branch of a tree and he flew off.

          He got lucky. Bats (like many flying beasties) have large energy requirements). He could have been too tired to fly after fasting for so long.
