There is an advantage in a situation where one may not be so able but still the best in the bunch. Presumably, a bat is a poor model of a bird. As in the liveliest proverbs, the image comes from nature and village life.

86.

弁慶の泣き所 Benkei no naki-dokoro.

The spot that makes the warrior Benkei cry.

[Everyone has his Achilles’ heel.]

This proverb is a recognition that everyone’s human and vulnerable; at the same time, it is also a tactical observation that there’s always a way to get at someone’s weak spot.
