The picture looks so beautiful, though I’m not really fond of bats. But I guess it’s still a lovely place to visit for all any passport holder who can drop by Texas.

That is an incredible picture, but contrasting. Such a beautiful sunset with such a scary looking creature!

@sandra-Bats are our friends. They eat millions of mosquitos every night. While you do not want to walk under the bridge, being on top of the bridge is a wonderful view point.
@cincymusic-They won’t hurt you. They are good creatures in spite of all the vampire movies…LOL!
@rosemary-Isn’t that web creepy? The thing keeps growing and growing. however, it is catching lots of mosquitoes, so I guess its okay.
