I like bats. We have them here in the summer, when they catch insects under our yard light. They also fly low overhead at night between my house and the river where there are lots of insects. It's always a high point in early summer when we see the first of them. I've never personally seen big swarms like that though. That's really nice to see!
I am sure you would have loved this! It was very cool! and the hawk trying to catch his dinner was pretty amazing too!
