 Bat Flight at Congress Bridge



Believe it or not, one of the major draws to Austin in the spring and summer is the Congress Avenue Bridge, which is home to one of the largest colonies of Mexican Free-Tailed bats in the world.  The estimated 1.5 million (yes, million) bats perform a valuable service for the city by eating 10,000 to 30,000 pounds of insects each night.

Just before sunset, spectators gather on the lawn near the bridge, at the viewing area atop the bridge or on boats on Lady Bird Lake to witness one of natures spectacles!

Of course, there’s so much more to do in Austin that we can’t begin to list it all!  So, here’s a handy guide! Austin City Guide
