Re: All Righty ... What are you doing today ?
Well, we went to JÜLICH in Germany,for the European bat night.
And guess what,...we didn't see a single life one!
The 'creatures of the night' just didn't want to show them selfs.
In normal conditions you can find the bats inside of JÜLICH citadel bastions,who are not open for public most time of the year,
to give the bats a good home.A guide told us there are around 400 bats living in the citadel.
We didn't see any bats at all,as they were too deep in the niches of the citadels stonework.
O well,as the Bat night was held at the impressive citadel,I might as well share some pictures with you;
As JÜLICH was pretty much 'bombed out'during WW2 you can still see some remains of that period.
Here is me with the infamous 'Acht Acht'[crazy 88].
Overhead view of the Citadel.
The center of it holds a school inside.
The entrance of the citadel.
MASSIVE walls!
Some rusty cannons.
The magpie uses them to relieve him self...
This is one of the 'creatures of the night' we hoped to see...but didn't!
The inside of JÜLICH citadel...
Took the chance to get behind the citadels designer working table,when nobody looked!
That's all folks!
