Grey headed flying fox (Pteropus poliocephalus) skimming the water of a parkland lake on a warm day. Flying foxes do this to cool down, and to coat their fur with water. They then stop in a nearby tree - licking the water from their fur to drink. Photo taken in Roma Street Parklands, Brisbane, QLD.
