The included photo may just look like the outcome of an amateur with a fully charged digital camera, however, this is a typical scene in Sydney during dusk. If this makes you think of Hitchcock's "Birds" movies, you're a bit off. Rather, replace that thought with images of "The Wizard of Oz" and flying monkeys. Flying monkeys in Australia? Not quite, however, the next best thing are these giant bats (flying foxes). By day they hang in the trees at the Botanical Gardens,
squealing and socialising, by night they fly around eating insects and stealing young children.
The included images were found in the window of a pub in Pyrmont. Apparently, Australians, much like Americans, love spectator sports. In this case, rather than paying for expensive horses, big hats, and mint juleps, you can grab a pint and watch crabs. This all seems fun, and the detail that makes this more intriguing is that fact that this is a seasonal sport. Image 2 details how this great sport will be starting back up on Australia Day (which was in January). Do you reckon the losing crabs end up being part of your next California roll?
