We figured it was dying or something so we were all sitting around, and after a few minutes the damn thing leaped into the air and took off flying down the cave. It was the most bizarre thing we had ever seen. NONE of us had ever heard or knew that bats could take flight while on the ground, much less while lying on their back. Is this common? lol it freaked us all out as it damn near flew into all of our faces!

Most will drown if they fall into water while arousing from hibernation though, if you ever come across big clusters above water in the winter it's best to avoid that section.
