the dirty dozen {twelve plus five* excerpts from yelp reviews of the mexican free-tailed bat colony beneath austin's congress avenue bridge}
01 So, it was a slow process and just looked like a bunch of birds flying around.
02 It's neat to see a ton of bats once in your lifetime.
03 The ones in Houston come out at sunset like clockwork, even in winter.
04 Also, to people who bring children, there is a smart-ass who sells light up swords. Seriously. So be prepared for that.
05 Maybe I'll try to get in a canoe next time and see if it is a different experience.
06 The bats came out, did their show. People shrieked as they got pooped on by some.
07 I could see the little baby bats flying around the columns of the bridge and got excited for them.
08 This experience gets 5 stars because I wanted one thing only: to see A LOT of bats.
09 They just kept coming out!
10 I highly recommend the San Antonio bat population for better, more defendable viewing under the Camden St bridge!
11 No, San Antonio bats aren't anything compared to the Austin bats at their prime.
12 Perhaps there is something to be said about seeing something like that in such an urban environment, but it's nothing too incredible or remarkable. It's just nature. And I think the description, "thousands of bats flying out from under a bridge" kind of sums it up.
13 no bats
14 I like the bats, I have seen them several times, they eat a lot of bugs and they do a good job of it.
15 I would also just like to comment that I appreciated the sun going down and the view more than the bats.
16 I'm trying to figure out how anyone can give the bats anything but five stars.
17 Bats under a bridge. They fly out. End of story.
