Bat Walk

This year we have decided to put our zoo membership to good use. So, we signed up for an evening bat walk. Emma was super excited to go to the zoo at night. Frank and I were just happy to enjoy a nice stroll through the park. We could have done without the heat but in the end we finally did see some bats so it was worth it.

On our way...



Frank and I started whispering to each other about this being a "dud" because we weren't seeing any bats but...

then they appeared! Flying across from beam to beam. They were so darn quick and small I couldn't get a picture of them but they were there, I promise!
