This happy freetail bat is from the cover of Texas Co-Op Magazine, a great local mag for, well, customers of Texas electrical Co-ops. That's a cooperatively owned utility (or business, or what have you) if you don't know-- like owning stock in a company, we all own a part of our electric company! And if they do well during the year, we get money back from our utility bill. Wooo! We love our Co-op company!
Also, pictures of happy bats!
The Mexican freetail bat is kind of a ginormous Thing here,but apparently some people don't like bats! All I can figure is those people are poops. Look at that smiley face! That's not even artistic license, it's totally grooving! Freetails eat their weight in bugs, serve as major crop pollinators, and make adorable chirpy sounds at night. I like to watch them doing acrobatics out around our security light in the summer, picking off the bugs that would otherwise be noshing me to the bone. Go, bats!
Also, a rather smug frog. Frogs always look either smug or panicked.

Cara, I love you! ;) I don't understand why anyone doesn't like bats. They're cute! And furry! And they eat mosquitoes! Anything that eats mosquitoes is welcome to hang out around my home. That's my excuse for never cleaning up cobwebs. Their denizens help control the bloodsucking parasite population!
