This bat can't fly from anywhere. It's deceased. It obviously got "lost" in the closed umbrella and died "hanging out" (pun intended). . I tried feeding it part of my steak but it's vegetarian.

This is it in his better days on a previous visit on the inside of the umbrella (same one as today as he had the same serial number):
