Second to orphan season, the most time-consuming time of the year is teaching the non-releasable bats how to self-feed. 

If you find a bat please remember to use gloves or a towel when rescuing him/her as the bat will be frightened and may bite in self-defense. (We are trained and vaccinated to handle bats so we sometimes use bare hands as it allows better tactile sensitivity and control.)
