Here's a shot from our photo workshop in Arizona with Bill Forbes.  I was surprised on closer inspection to see that there was a fish jumping to the left of the bat, that's part of the reason I cropped the photo more closely

The little fish is a bonus on what is already a fine camera trap shot Nate! Superb detail and reflection.

This is an excellent shot. Should have way more comments, in my opinion.
Well framed, great action, fish is a bonus.
