Kyogle Part 1: Holy bats, Batman!
A few weeks ago Gavin and I visited the little town of Kyogle. Neither of us knew how little the town was going to be. He was to spend the day in a training course and I was free to wander. Five minutes and I had seen pretty much everything on the mainstreet. I decided to wander a bit further and eventually found myself in a park. It was a lovely park. I could hear loud chirping at one end near a rail bridge and decided to check in out. I thought perhaps I might see some interesting birds. As I rounded the bridge I realized quickly it wasn't birds chirping but thousands of bats. Honestly there were thousands. Most of them were hanging upside-down but some were flying around to find a new branch to hang from. When I returned home I checked my Encyclopedia of Australian Wildlife and determined they were probably Grey-headed Flying Foxes. Big bats.
