Thank you! Had trouble finding any information and assumed they were travelling further. Although have only seen it last night and not the other two we've been here.
I used to jog through the golf course during covid when Denarau island was basically shut down. You're right about it not happening every night, but saw them quite often.
When I was a child there was a tree about a kilometer away from our house that the bats decided to roost in for five or six years for no obvious reason. There didn't seem to be anything special about this tree. But they'd be hanging there every day... thousands of them, and they'd all fly away at sunset.
Not a migration. Just them leaving their roost at sunset, to head into the forest to feed. You'll see this every night.
If this was filmed at Denarau, they roost in one of the small islands just off the coast.
