Batty

It was not far off being Halloween, I guess, so the sight of a Fruit Bat was rather topical LOL

We had a quick cuppie when we got back to the car and didn't have long to wait then for the light to fail and out came the bats. I wasn't quite prepared for the show they gave us, as they kept coming and coming.

I've been struggling to find the scientific name for the ones in Queensland.
