Bats....:

We just moved but I put up bat houses at our last home. Austin has the largest urban bat population in North America in fact.

In and around our house they would feed in the evening, drinking from the pool. Very cool to have around and as nffclsr, they helped with our insects. Never had any issues with them getting in the house/attic.

Bats coming out of the bridge in Austin - amazing site! (Not my picture BTW)

Be thankful you don't have these.  I was stationed in Subic Bay, Philippines and they had fruit bats like this.

You would see them flying at night especially when the moon was out and it was creepy.

I've been on that bridge when the bats came out.  Really spooky, but really cool at the same time.
