One of my favorite shots taken as the bats leave the Bat Houses at UF. Originally posted March 27, 2008.
Well, I’m trying something new again. I have been looking at Ellen and others Sky Watch photos for several weeks. Last week I took some pictures to use for Sky Watch.
Lake Alice on the University of Florida campus is home to alligators, birds, bats and other creatures. In the student agricultural gardens across the street from the Lake features a bat house. Every night at sunset the bats come out of the house and put on a show. By playing with the settings on my camera I was actually able to catch bats. The little gray almost transparent triangle/diamond shapes by the tree are bats. Funny thing is I almost deleted this shot because I didn’t think I had captured anything.
For more Sky Watch.
