It’s really hard to believe….but it has begun. Check out the video taken last week.

Excellent job, roosts are quite amazing. We live 50 miles north of Omaha where there was a roost in 2010 right in town that we got some film clips too.

Hi Penny! Great video! Are they at the Garland bowling alley again? I plan on going this year.

My injured female is doing great and feeding babies!

Penny, thanks so much for the roost video and for monitoring area roosts. Just talked with a landlord up that way who said this is the BEST season he's seen in years and years.
