Bat Cow

Artist: D.J. Stout and Faith Schexnnayder
This cow is hanging upside down under the Congress Bridge. The eyeballs are red light bulbs. I want to go back at night to see if they light up. The Congress bridge in downtown Austin is the spring and summer home to some 750,000 bats with up to 1.5 million bats at the peak of the bat-watching season. It's the largest urban bat colony in North America. Tons of people hang out on the bridge at dusk to see the bats fly out to hunt for food every night.
Sorry for the fillers the last few days, haven't been in the creative and inspired mood to take photos. Next week I will be better.
great capture
