Good Water Master Naturalists: Bats: Why We Can’t Live Without Them

The Round Rock Public Library and the Good Water Chapter of the Texas Master Naturalist Program present Bats: Why We Can’t Live Without Them from 2 to 3 p.m., Saturday, October 5, Round Rock Public Library, Meeting Room A+B.

Bats are often considered spooky, scary, or dangerous–and sometimes all three at once. But they’re a vital part of our natural world, and we’d notice if they disappeared. Join Christie Gardner to learn all about bats, and especially why we can’t live without them.
