Greg these are lovely, I always had the vague idea that they were only active when it is very low light or dark. Obviously wrong, wrong. I've never seen one in our area: are yours the Botanical Gardens colony or the removed group, or are they more wide-spread than that? This shot is a beauty, colour, fur texture, eye-light.

the bachelor males and alpha males are constantly trying to invade alphas harem to rape females and the alphas busy flying around either servicing his females or fending off interloper bachelors

a bit grisly but ensures lots of shots during daylight hours

these are the ones that were relocated to yarra bend from the botanic gardens

Neat capture Greg. Love seeing such different creatures.
