Ok. Why are they upside down in my post but right side up when you click on them?
 

The boat hook is correct. It isn't a horseshoe crab. It is pissed off though.
 

We were crabbing in the upper Chesapeake and saw what we assumed was a crab swimming on the surface. When we got close we saw a bat treading water with its wings. I wouldn't bring it on the boat but I felt sorry for it. image.jpeg

We built it a raft and brought it close to shore with a favoring wind.
 

After I got home I did some Google research and discovered that bats have difficulty taking off from the ground, which is why they sleep upside down from a bit of a height. I doubt this tired out bat made it.
 

Think I may have posted that one already... heh

You certainly saved its life, but being injured, in the water, It may be sick with RABIES or (the dreaded) White-Nose Syndrome, that is killing MILLIONS of these little guys, back East.
Thanks for the post!
