Bats

We just went outside after dinner to watch the bats.  I don't have any pictures, but wanted to tell you about it because it's just so cool.  Just after dusk they come zooming high over our yard, just one every few minutes, eating up all the mosquitoes.  We watch the patch of sky between the trees until one swoops by, then with much jumping up and down we follow it until it flies over he house or into the neighbors' trees.

It's just another reason for me to love the fall, because dusk happens before bedtime and we can have this adventure.
