The Lubee Bat Conservancy holds its annual open house and bat festival on Saturday, October 27th from 10 to 4:

It's a bit of a drive outside Gainesville, but also in the general direction of springs and stuff.

Also, there's the bat houses on the UF campus, a couple hundred thousand bats fly out of them every night for about a half hour after sundown:

This is cool. We see bats in our neighborhood here in Fort Lauderdale sometimes. Only mammal that can fly.
