Did you know that there are 17 known species of bat that live in the state of Virginia and that 3 of those are Federally recognized as endangered?

Let's learn about the magnificence of these three endangered species while we make a Halloween themed avatar, better known in the Fall season as an abator, that can fly just like a kite. If your abator kite can fly, you can bat yourself on the back.

Meet us at the Quayle Classroom.
