Some one wanted to see a flying-fox. It is not a B,B or B but another B: Black Flying-fox. BFFs are big pollinators of our forests. They are about 13" long and weigh about 2.5lbs and have a wing span of about 3.5'.

It is an awful picture but tonight was my first attempt - it was 80' up feeding on blossom nectar of an eucalypt.
Now, if I only could photograph the Boobook Owl calling from near that tree. (And pigs might fly).

The problem is that when you are young your life it is ruined by your parents. When you are older it is ruined by your children.
