Austin is called the "Bat City" due to the large population of Mexican free-tailed bats that inhabit the Congress Avenue Bridge. Each year, from spring to fall, around 1.5 million bats emerge at dusk, creating a spectacular sight for locals and tourists alike. This unique natural phenomenon has made Austin a popular destination for bat-watching, highlighting the city's quirky charm and connection to wildlife. The bats play an important role in the local ecosystem by helping to control insect populations.
