Theres a colony of bats under the Congress Ave bridge in Austin. There is an estimated 1.5 million that come out to eat evening. They are the largest colony of bats in North America. It is estimated that these bats can consume a total of ten thousand to thirty thousand pounds of insects in a night. They give birth in June and July The bats and their pups hang out until October and then they head south for the winter. This is an awesome sight to see, but now we are stuck in traffic for what looks like next 2 hours!
