    Edit Photo Details Roosting African Fruit Bats   #colony #roosting #straw_colored_bats
    I have always been fascinated with bats. These much maligned group of animals never the less are important to us. For instance they pollinate important food and drink plants and are responsible for disseminating seeds in rain forests for many first growth trees. These particular creatures tend to roost in cavities of the giant baobab trees in their native land. The insectivorous bats are a whole other story. And, yes, I am standing just below them in their roost.
