I love the detail you get on these wonderful little bats Jeff, such a clear view of the tiny 'thumbs' and 'claws' on the wings in this one, as well as the toes and the pink tongue. Very nicely captured!

Wonderful capture Jeff! Great lighting and colors. I would love to have the variety of plants, colors and textures, you have in Costa Rica to shoot nectar feeders coming to. Only two species of nectar feeders here in Arizona and only a couple plants to choose from. Well done!

Thanks so much Rick, I know that living in Costa Rica is like living in Paradise, in the other hand I must admit that i feel attracted to deserts and arid areas so I know Ill love those very few plants that you have there... Greetings from the Rainforest!!!!
