    Life is full of new challenges and so it is with our orphaned flying-foxes in care.
    We try and present as many new experiences before our charges are soft released back to the wild as who knows which skills will become useful in their future lives.
    Grape plucking can be a difficult task to master especially with larger grapes but our orphans are fast learners who watch the older more experienced bats for tips.
    Another skill gained and stored in the tool box of life.

    Beautiful babies! Thank you Meg, for everything you do for them!!!

      So for me they are fluffy night butterflies

      Nerine I love the “sniff fests” that occur when a new bat is introduced to the group! Thumb wrestling and trilling and squawking also ensue!
      They get positively surrounded by the other bats who want to familiarize themselves with the scent of the new arrival!

Our bat eats insect, I imagine because we don't have fruits all year around. So I will try to find a way to help them. I look for new episode every day on you tube. Stay safe.
