Bats pollinate (1) Wednesday, Jan 13, 2010 9:18 am

It turns out that bats, along with birds and bees (insert convoluted reproduction joke), are in the business of pollinating plants and flowers.  How about that.  I knew those fuzzy little swimming creatures must exist for purposes other than eating bugs and scaring people

[On a side note, that Forest Service link also contains this gem:  "The agave is an important plant because it is used to make tequila."  Ah, priorities.]

So...it turns out that the little bat that I had removed from our bathroom years ago, as he was clinging to the underside of the curtains, could have been "saved" and used to pollinate the main ingredient in my margaritas?  You're never too old to learn anything!
