Cullen Condo

The bat houses are in place!  The bat houses that the Science Club constructed last year have been mounted.  Thanks to Mr. Goss who made an awesome pole extension and bracket system so that the houses could be 15 feet above the ground.

Science Club will monitor the bat houses with the hope that bats will roost in them in the Spring.
