The Fruit Bat

Singapore

I visited the Singapore zoo and found this fruit bat hanging at the `Fragile Rainforest' enclosure. It really felt like I was walking through the rainforest, except that this place is clean and free from mosquitoes! I like the way it wrapped itself up with its wings.

I had once a bat run into me in the middle of the night like it was having a radar problem. It was a seriously ugly looking animal. This one is creeping me out. Still it makes for powerful photography Flow.
