    Re: Frio Bat Flight... MAJOR DUW!

    Those have to be some of the most awesome photos I've ever seen, period. Watching bats is one of the coolest things as far as I'm concerned. I've spent lots of summer nights sitting out at the pond at my parent's house and just watching the bats fly around.

    I was in Austin once for a conference years ago and I believe that is the bridge where we went to see the bats. What an awesome sight!!

    Even with a bad experience of getting a bat stuck in my hair as a kid (very traumatic experience!!!!), I still really enjoy bats. I would love to be able to do that, and I can't thank you enough for sharing that experience.

    Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
    You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
    On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
    You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
    Then you Stand
