Giant Fruit Bats Along the Esplanade (Cairns, Australia)

[grunzte]

They are "spectacled flying foxes". They spend their days on the trees at Abott street, near the library. Every evening at around 19:10 they take off and head for the rainforest where they feed on fruits. There are hundreds a Abott streat, and even more in a colony near Andersen & Peat street.
