The last time we went to one we watched from the Walmart parking lot. I accidentally deleted my memory card so it was a painful memory for me. I don't care to got to another one because of it. If we did go, I would just watch instead.becky aka theRAVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12905692913745808509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20249225.post-30333311237757196602009-03-19T01:05:00.000+11:002009-03-19T01:05:00.000+11:00Those are all so interesting!

I was so amazed at the sheer numbers of them, but also at how difficult it was to take a photo of a bat that you didn't know was coming from which angle..if you get my drift!<BR/><BR/>So so many, so silent...and not a decent photo to be had. The photos I did get had funny wispy marks of bat black against a blue black nearly black sky. Oh well, at least I got the moon!Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10698343129217681652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20249225.post-9767497571393620512009-03-18T17:32:00.000+11:002009-03-18T17:32:00.000+11:00They are amazing and what amazes me more in the co...They are amazing and what amazes me more in the combination of the 300mm lens, pitch dark and no tripod.
