Watching the fruit bats zigzag through the figtrees as the moon rises. They are in a frenzy, gorging themselves on bait-balls of sugar-drunk fruitflies.

I took this in slow motion, but even with that, they flicker and strobe past.

🦇 Hey all you bat fans! It’s International Bat Appreciation Day. Besides symbolizing death and rebirth, they also do us a solid by eating the worst creatures on earth (mosquitoes) and helping other pollinators like bees and butterflies. They’re not horrible! They’re vital for maintaining a healthy ecosystem. Plus they’re goth AF, in case that’s why you’re here. 🦇
