Geocache Description:

Cache is located in a green space between the Tallahassee Mall and Truesdale Pool and Gymnastics Center. You are looking for a small black lock and lock type container.

This bat house, located in Tallahassee, Florida, looks old and even somewhat oriental with its red clay tiled roof but it was actually constructed in 1999. The use of very tall supporting poles keeps the bats safe from predators while providing ventilation – guano collection on a large scale is no longer practiced. The 10 by 10 by 23 ft high bat house was built with the support of the Twilight Group, a privately funded non-profit organization whose mission is to provide educational programs about bats and through doing so, promote their conservation. Situated on the John Knox Road marsh pond, the approximately 60,000 Brazilian Free-Tailed bats that roost in the house from October through March find both fresh drinking water and abundant insect foods close at hand. Er, wing.

CONGRATS to Coinseekers for the FTF!!
