Rucker Bat Cave (TX8) in Edwards County Texas is always active this time of year, as Mexican free-tailed bats make their way back into Central Texas. This reflectivity represents many hundreds of thousands of bats. Were happy to see Fern Cave (TX6) in Val Verde County with a large emergence also, we have been seeing fewer bats there than in years past.
