I would turn off all the lights and go upstairs to where there was a french door to the exterior, open the doors completely, then put a lit lamp on the deck, outside the doors. I would lay down in the room, on the floor, and watch the bat be attracted to the light and find its way outside. Sometimes I couldn’t see the bat leave, but if I just kept gazing at the lighted area, the bat would always swing back by and give me a wave of thanks. I could count on it. So yeah, I’m certain your bat came back to say thanks.
