A resident was amazed to see a family of fruit bats sleeping on a tree above her window.

Footage shows the five winged mammals hanging upside down on the branches as seen outside the home in Manila, the Philippines.

The nocturnal animals swayed as wind blew the foliage but they stayed in the safety of the hardwood.

Onlooker Hannah Monica Estonido said she did not expect to see them because they live in an urban area.

She said: 'I looked up to my window and realised there were sleeping fruit bats in one of our trees.

'I was so amazed not only because it's my first time seeing an actual bat, but also because it's a rare sighting in an urban area.

'My father said there are more of them in our rooftop because that's where he plants most of his fruit-bearing trees.'
