Subject: [MDBirding] Extralimital: Protect Warbler Habitat & Bat Cave
Bracken Cave near San Antonio, TX is under threat from proposed nearby development. Over 10 million bats call this cave home. It was wondrous to see their swirling emergence over the course of hours two summers ago.



The federally endangered Golden-cheeked Warbler also calls this area home, nesting and foraging on the land slated for building.



Here is a link to a petition to the city leaders. Public hearing set for May 29.
