Oh My... There were Bats!

We were at Jinja, about 75 miles to the east of our usual location of Kampala. We had been at Head waters of The Nile river and were heading to our hotel, when some noticed bats... lots of bats. I took this photo from our hotel balcony. The black specks are huge bats the size of crows. The sky was filled for a mile wide and they flew past in this quantity for more than 30 minutes, until the sun went down and it was too dark to see them, but you could hear their wings and chirps. It was an amazing sight.
