A fox, which flies. From India. An Indian Flying Fox.
Otherwise known as a “bat”.
What a glorious thing is chance and necessity, allowing for the emergence of mammals with wings where their arms could be.
And she is a night animal—my kind of animal. Along with the serval and the otter, the kangaroo rat and the possum, the snow leopard and the moth, creatures great and small and maybe a little bit creepy, Traer Scott has photographed them (not quite all).
But this is the one which captured me.
What a magnificent shot of a magnificent creature.
