Night Raid

Some of the stream of many hundreds of Grey Headed Flying Foxes (fruit bats) that cross our sky each summer evening in late dusk, heading out searching for their food of fruit and nectar. During the day they roost in a large colony some kilometers away.

Notes show the colony in daytime and one of the bats 'relocating' itself during the day.

Thanks, Bev. Stay indoors and avoid flappy things. :) Actually, it was near totally dark, so very much at the end of 'blue hour'.
