Fruit Bats, Adelaide Australia
January 18, 2021
Fruit Bats, Adelaide Botanic Gardens, South Australia – 18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper.
One of my most memorable and favorite experiences of all time was seeing what we initially thought were pinecones until they started moving – the thousands of fruit bats in the pine trees at Adelaide Botanic Gardens, located within the city limits. On a very hot summer day at sunset we sat and watched them fly low across the river, while skimming their bodies into the water, then fly back to a tree, settle on a branch and lick the water off their fur.
