With entertainment options still quite limited, we found ourselves easily amused with our neighbor's bat problem. At 8:10pm sharp every night, we'd come outside for the show.
The bats come out of their roof gutter just above the view over our hedges.
Now in view position, it's show time! This is our mini-version of the bat cave in Austin.
The first bats begin to emerge..... Look for two fuzzy grey blobs along the white siding. My camera doesn't have a shutter fast enough to capture a clear image.
Two more can be seen here in the sky. At our peak estimates, we counted 64 bats!
A hawk finally noticed this evening ritual as well, and it now perches atop the roof to catch its prey.
Here's a brief video if you want to watch the live action...
