More Maternity Creche Moments - Jeannie's Bat Aviary - Meet Two Mums & Pups (Cute Baby Flying Foxes)
We were helping to build a large flight bat aviary at Jeannie's place. Right next door in a smaller aviary, she had a maternity creche for bats. There were 7 rescued flying foxes including two mums with their babies.
This is such a rare event to witness, I couldn't help myself taking more than an occasional peek through the mesh.
Apologies for some slightly out-of-focus footage, but I had to video them through the aviary snake-proof mesh so as not to stress the mums.
But boy, what a gorgeous moment to be able to see a black and a grey-headed flying fox momma, each with their bubs (or pups as they are called), just chilling out, hanging together.
At times both mum and bub were rather curious about what we were doing! They watched us, as we watched them. SOOOO CUTE!

MORE ABOUT AUSTRALIAN FLYING FOXES:
Flying foxes play an important role in dispersing seeds and pollinating flowering plants. They are crucial in keeping our native forests healthy.
And because flying foxes are highly mobile, seeds can be moved locally and over great distances. Thus they are vital as our forest pollinators too.
Flying foxes are also the largest flying Australian mammal. And the only mammal in Australia that is the closest genetically to humans - go figure! Throughout history, humans have always wanted to fly but the flying foxes beat us to it. Now THAT deserves our admiration!
