Subject: Bats in Nairobi

Hello,

I have attached a photo of bats that I saw above the main gates, Nairobi N.P. Are they Wahlberg's Epauletted Fruit Bat.

Secondly, does anyone know about this species seen along the Kenyatta Avenue, opposite central park, pass the GPO. There is a colony that roost among those tall palm trees. Size medium-large and in one evening while going back to parklands from the car saw them coming out in large numbers from their roost for possible feeding.
