Little Red Flying-foxes

As dusk approaches, the flying-foxes become restless and noisy. Soon some start to fly around, then more, then more ... and suddenly all is silent as the last ones take to the air.
They swirl around like ghosts for a few minutes before dispersing to their nocturnal feed sites.

That is a staggering sight! I've only seen it once, sadly, but not forgotten. A really good catch of this dispersal. V

I have seen these "take off" scenes many times in Indonesia, it is really something to behold. Your photo shows this well.
