I like your vertical one the most, which is actually showing the bats and the great blue sky |

Both are great. I've been wanting to take my little ones.

hookem, the evenings have been so crystal clear and dry this week - making for some stunning bat viewing. i want to take pics from the southeast corner of the bridge, which is where they come pouring out. the sound is so amazing - all their little fleshy wings flapping against each other. |

I'll definitely have to go then. Saturday night looks good. My kids should enjoy it now that they're a bit older (4 and 5). --------------------------- Carlos "It's not what you shoot... it's how you shoot it" www.lonestarphotog.com ----------------------------------------------- "He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed." -Albert Einstein "An intellectual snob is someone who can listen to the William Tell Overture and not think of The Lone Ranger." - Dan Rather |

OK... today didn't quite pan out. Too much going on. Maybe next week when my kid's school lets out. --------------------------- Carlos "It's not what you shoot... it's how you shoot it" www.lonestarphotog.com ----------------------------------------------- "He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed." -Albert Einstein "An intellectual snob is someone who can listen to the William Tell Overture and not think of The Lone Ranger." - Dan Rather |

Nice! I saw the bats for the first time this past Friday. Also got some pre-bat entertainment when someone jumped off the bridge trying to get away from the police. :) |
