Botanical Gardens - Fruitbats!

Mar 14th. Bit of a lie in till 8.30 this morning, after breakfast we head off to the Royal Botanical gardens to have a look around and see the local fruitbat colony. Some of the things written in travel books prove elusive but there are thousands of fruitbats (sometimes known as flying foxes) hanging upside down in the trees. They make quite a noise as well, There was a bit of comedy when one fruitbat got in another ones hanging room and they had a bit of a scrap. The weaker one flew off, its wings were obviously not like a shield of steel.
