Love the wing shape in this photo of an eastern red pup (17-79) brought to us by Adam Warren from Silver Dale in SW Austin
Lots of action in the flight cage last night!
This bat is curling up on a moth it just caught, rolling it into its tail membrane and kicking it to subdue and eat it. All of this done while flying and scarcely missing a beat.
A closeup of that shot

Pretty wing conformation on this tri-colored bat.
Here’s another bat curling up on a moth. Lots of action under the blacklight!
This Barred Owl juvy was raised nearby and we’re trying to run him off. Way easier said than done. 
Finally got him to go, but grudgingly and he’ll probably be back before the night is through. At least the pups will recognize a predator the next time they see one. For many bat pups, the firs time they see an owl is the last time they see anything, so we’re glad ours get another chance.
In the morning, pups were scattered all over the place, this one right out in the open. He is the first of Laurie’s pups to fly off on his own. The mum flew off with the others still on her. We found her and reunited them so they could snuggle through the day.
These pups are trying to look like just another dead leaf.
Here’s Laurie’s mum with her pups on her, but with Alvaro and Michelle trying to adopt her. We got them all straightened out, reunited the family, fed and watered all for the day. What a night!
