Bats and Music Under a Tucson Bridge

Bat Country Under Tucson Bridges!

A bevy of bats billow out from the bridgeI have to say, it was just a series of little pink signs with clever rhymes, but seeing them day by day up and down Campbell Avenue definitely did a good job of intriguing me. I’d long seen bats flitting around at twilight in my neighborhood, and had wondered where it was they might sleep during the day. I definitely hadn’t been able to imagine any caves within the city, and I didn’t think they’d fly so far as to come from open desert…but under any of the bridges crossing the Rillito River? There was only one way to find out, and that was to attend Bat Night!
