Austin Bats

[firemanjj82]

We're in town and would like to go see the bats. I know it can be crazy around here, so would like some details on where to park, what time, and how best to see them.

Thanks.

Are they COVID bats?

Congress Bridge is the Austin colony they will come outvon the East side. Not sure where you are but easier is going tonRound Rock just North of Academy and sit on the East side of I 35 in a lawn chair with everyone else.


If you want to go on Congress I suggest going to the Hyatt (I think) on the South shoreline and they do a bat tour where you go on their party boat and watch.

Bat tours are sold out. That was the plan, but didn't think about tickets soon enough.

Any idea on where to eat beforehand? We did El Arroyo last night. May do it again.

HELL YES!!

I heard Austin finally kicked the bums out that were living along the freeways. Austin was looking pretty bad there for a while, or noticeably worse than normal.

Someone tell them about all these tasty North TX mosquitoes up here needing to become Austin bat dinner.

Hope you got to see them tonight.

We saw a few, bit they never swarmed out while we were there.

Bummer, better luck next time if you and your family get a chance to see them again, maybe earlier or later.

Not sure if this is really the cause, but the freeze killed a ton of bats. I bet the catfish gorged themselves under that bridge.
