Austin, Texas, USA. 17th June, 2018. People go batty for one of Austin's local attractions. Sunday evening at sunset, millions of Mexico free-tailed bats leave their perch under the Congress Avenue Bridge over Lady Bird Lake in downtown Austin, Texas to feed on insects. Thousands of onlookers line the bridge to watch the spectacle which happens nightly from about March to November. The flight pattern can be up to 2-mile high. Credit: Glenn Ruthven/Alamy Live News
