Pretty soon all the other bats smelled the blood and began hassling him about where he got it.
He told them to go away and let him get some sleep, but they persisted until finally he gave in.
“OK, follow me” he said and flew out of the cave with hundreds of bats behind him.
Down through the valley they went, across a river and into a forest full of trees.
Finally, he slowed down and all the other bats excitedly milled around him.
“Now, do you see that tree over there?” he asked.
“Yes, Yes, Yes!” the bats all screamed in a frenzy.
“Good” said the bat, “Because I sure didn’t!”
