| This one measures up |
On my previous tour, I counted the size (roughly) of the bat colony in Hang Va (there is well over 200). I mentioned this to Deb and she knows a "Batman" in Hanoi who she said would be interested.

| What a beautiful nose |
So, for my next tour, my mission was to obtain some pictures, fortunately the bats seem to roost very low so it is easy to get pictures.

| Nuoc Nut |
The next tour was only a few days later and the Guide hadn't been before so I went for both days.

An early start from Phong Nha, the mist was hanging low and gradually clearing as we left, a beautiful sight.

| Misty Mountains |
Nuoc Nut was first, and towards the sump there are also some bats which seem the same as the Hang Va so I was able to get some pictures there, as well as some reasonable shots of the cave.

Hang Va was next but this time there were fewer bats roosting, they were mostly flying about, but there were still some available for photography

| Cave Cricket |
As I was on a wild life photo mission I thought I would snap one of the white cave crickets in Va as well, there are lots about and the are quite big at about two centimetres long, with antenna that seem to reach nearly four centimetres extra.
