Yeah, if a bat flew into our house, you would probably hear Connie's screech all across the country as she broke every world record for the broad jump and 100 yard dash off of the porch.
Many years ago Connie and I were walking down a path in the New Jersey Pine Barrens when out of nowhere two birds came directly at us at high speed. They were apparently fighting among themselves and didn't notice us. Connie sure noticed them, though. She let out a scream that covered every possible frequency of the audible (and then some) spectrum. It sounded like it started from her toes and went all the way up through the top of her head. I don't know what that scream did to the birds, but we both sure had throbbing headaches and ear ringing for the rest of the day. My guess is that a bat would give us a repeat of that performance, and I would be using up my remaining stock of Excedrin.
