DON’T MISS THE NGAT BAT CRUISE - We all know that Austin is batty for bats. Austin is home to the largest Mexican free-tail bat colony in North America, and August is the perfect time to celebrate these winged creatures that dwell underneath the Ann W. Richards Congress Avenue Bridge. Make plans to join NGAT and your National Guard friends on a Bat Cruise on Lady Bird Lake with Capital Cruises at the Hyatt Regency Hotel. Come see the bats swoop out from under the bridge for their nightly dinner run.
