Great close-up of this handsome bat. It appears that it is thanking you for the pawpaws Ken (lol). TFS!

Also called the not severe headache position. Lovely capture of it during leisure time.

Are they new arrivals to your garden Ken? I so remember the first ever fruit bats I saw that day with you on our way to Eddie Gulia(somethingorother)'s.

That's a cracking close-up picture you've got of this guy - well done my friend.
