fruit bats in the maramagambo forest (queen elizabeth national park), south-western uganda.

these winged mammals made a lot of noise, flitted about a lot, and their droppings left a very strong smell, not surprising when they number in the thousands!

this photograph is part of a photoset, nature in uganda : photographs of my time in uganda in june 2004. these photos show some of the wildlife and the environments they are found in.
