Zambia: Bats at Sunrise at BBC Hide

What’s more spectacular then bats coming out at sunset? Well – bats returning to the roosting ground at sunrise. BBC hide (named after and built for the BBC film crew when David Attenborough was filming Planet Earth here is a treehouse high up in a massive tree. Once you climb to the top – you have an unobstructed view of 11 million bats returning against the background of red sunrise-lit sky. Another bucketlist experience, despite having to wake up at 4am.
