A first for today
I was down the back cleaning up all the dropped mangoes (mainly eaten by flying foxes) when I noticed the awful smell...Dead flying fox in the back yard. We've had trees for 40 years, had flying foxes visit and eat them for almost as long and this is the first dead one. I'm a little dubious given the spreading Hendra zone this season. It could be natural causes, but I aint picking it up with anything but a long shovel straight into a pit.

I've seen this case before - very tragic, two flying foxes on the same tree, one drops a mango onto the others head. Death by mango ;-)
Oh..thats what caused that bruise on the dropped mango beside the bat
