Austin Bat Watch 2

Austin Bat Watch - This is a view of the Ann Richards Congress Ave Bridge in downtown with the Austin skyline in the background as people are waiting for the bats to come out for their nightly show. People come almost nightly to view the Austin Bat Watch from the congress ave bridge. There are over a 1.5 million bats in Austin and it has become a part of the lifestyle and a hugh tourist attraction to come and watch them fly out together every night on their search for insects. The bats eat between 10,000 to 20,000 of insects so we should all appreciate that. Now they don't always fly out in big groups it depends on how plentiful the insects are that they are eating. The more insect their are they can come out at a more leisurely pace. Photo © copyright by Bee Creek Photography - Tod Grubbs / Cynthia Hestand.
