My Red boys are growing up fast and I'm hoping they are fully independent before orphan seasons starts.
Now spending their days out with the big bats in the main flight aviary, I move them over to a smaller aviary by themselves at night as they're still not up to managing large pieces of fruit.
It won't be long before they start flying and we can then look at bring all the other Red orphans over to spend time together before they are soft released back to the wild.

Are fruit bats also blind? The only bats I've seen up close are the ones that stay in the caves out in the desert in Southern California.
I love bats. especially fruit bats. they're puppies with wings.
I have always found them beautifully amazing.
