Free Millie Marotta bat colouring download for Halloween

October has arrived and Halloween is just around the corner. Get into the Halloween spirit with this free Millie Marotta colouring download.

This flying fox colouring sheet from Millie Marotta’s Beautiful Birds and Treetop Treasures is the perfect activity for a Halloween party. Coloured in it makes a great gift to hand out at trick or treat rounds in return for sweets. Or how about decorating your home with a garland made out of bats in your own choice of colours?

Bats might be one of our favourite Halloween symbols, being suitably creepy for their nocturnal habits and, in the case of some blood-feeding species, their association with vampires. But in the wild, many species of flying foxes are threatened with extinction.

Flying foxes, also known as fruit bats, live in tropic and subtropic climates and feed on fruit, nectar and pollen.

This download is extracted from Millie Marotta’s Beautiful Birds and Treetop Treasures, where you will find more tree-dwelling creatures and birds to colour in.
