Congress Bridge Bats

Went downtown the other night to see the bats. If there is one good thing about this heatwave is it makes the bats come out earlier than usual. We got down there around 8:15pm and they were out by 8:20pm.  I tried last year a number of times and they didn’t come out till after dark. More pictures after the break.

The bats definitely draw a crowd.
