This is the spectacular moment thousands of bats flew out of limestone caves to forage for food in Thailand

A twisting trail of the flying mammals was seen in the sky at sunset in Phitsanulok province on December 6, amazing locals and foreigners who come to the area to witness the scene.

Loud squeaks from the nocturnal creatures filled the air as they set out on their nightly hunting trip.

The bats fly from the Khao Baan Mung, Pa Taa Pon, and Khun Seuk caves every day at dusk, soaring outside through the darkness before roosting once again.

The stunning spectacle, along with the beautiful limestone mountains in the region, draws hundreds of tourists yearly to Thailand’s Noen Maprang district.

Thailand is home to several species of bats. They live in the country’s mountain regions, including the cavernous Phitsanulok province.
