In the highland areas of East and southern Africa, particularly in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape, South Africa, a fascinating creature known as the Olive Thrush can be found. With its vibrant plumage and melodious song, this a sight to behold. One sunny day, as I wandered through the picturesque landscape, I stumbled upon an enchanting scene. A beautiful Olive Thrush was taking a refreshing bath in a birdbath. Its feathers glistened under the gentle spray of water, creating a mesmerizing display of nature's wonders. Feeding on the fruits of the cat thorn bush (Scutia myrtina), these frugivores play an essential role in dispersing seeds across their habitat. As they hop from branch to branch with grace and precision, they ensure that new life sprouts throughout their surroundings. But frugivores aren't limited to just birds; primates also partake in this fruit-filled feast. In one instance captured by DDE-90038727 and DDE-90038725 photographs, an Agile gibbon and two Hanuman langurs were spotted enjoying their fruity delights together. It was heartwarming to witness these creatures sharing not only food but also moments of camaraderie amidst nature's abundance. Venturing further into Sri Lanka during February brought me face-to-face with another captivating spectacle - an Indian Flying Fox colony roosting in trees during daytime. The massive wingspan of Pteropus giganteus created an awe-inspiring sight against the backdrop of clear blue skies. As if that wasn't enough excitement for one trip, Siem Reap in Cambodia offered glimpses into Lyles Flying Fox behavior during January. Two adult males engaged in fierce battles at their daytime roosts while an adult female yawned lazily nearby – capturing moments both intense and serene within this unique frugivorous species.
