I've had several of them fly within a foot or so of me while out star
watching, but never had one collide with me either.


Yeah. Once had a bat flying back and forth between me and another guy in a
tight crawl in a cave.

It was a bit confused, but never hit either of us.

You got me wondering about something here; I wonder if they hang around
people on purpose, due to the fact that some flying insects they can eat
will be attracted to people, or that people moving around in vegetation
might stir up flying insects for them to feed on?
Since we have no caves around here, where they stay during the daytime
is a good question; I assume they stay in cavities in old trees and in
abandoned buildings.
