Grey-headed flying fox and a smaller Black flying fox (black fruit bat)
These guys came in for a good days sleep. They been out and about all night. There are two species. Rather many of the larger Grey-headed flying fox but only 5 of the smaller Black flying fox. It was fun watching them and it seemed to please our guides as well. Nobody had thought of leaving too fast. We did see them going out to hunt for food last night. Big dark shapes flying the air. And it was not birds. I was not prepared for that so I was quite confused for a while. And, take a look at their feet and hooks on the wings. I would not want to get too close to an angry bat. :)
