Bats took up residence in the huge eucalyptus out the back a few weeks ago. Now there are hundreds of them every night, making that creepy chattering sound and flying around in circles doing their bat thing. The dog does not like them.

They'll be snacking on flowers, and should move on once the tree stops flowering.

I think you’re onto something there. Parrots all day long, bats all night long. At least the parrots are pleasant to look at and listen to.
