Here is a shot from around 7:40pm . May have to zoom in...This is the first time to count all week. We had some cold weather, but back up now. There were 111 came out..Last count was 86 or so...Still have the last 15 swarm around the house and a few do a "touch and go " to the bottom of the house, and head back out. The last group which swarms around really gets close and make a bunch of "echo's" I can hear in my receiver.

That is a real nice shot Randy! I am still experiencing very cold weather here in NWPA so I will most likely be slow getting all my bats back this spring.......

Last 2 night had 66 and then tonite 91, they came back in 10 or so minutes and swarmed all around and did touch and goes to bottom of house. They few within few feet of me standing at back fence 14' away and kinda under a bush. Was little un-nerving!

I've had little browns swarming all around me......some coming within 5" of my head........close enough I could feel the breeze from their wings......I've never had one touch me though.........
