Had to lay on my back in the mud to photograph these bats underneath a palm frond.

Interesting-looking bats, I don't recall seeing this species, thanks for sharing.

Most of the images we've seen before have been the darker ones, so its great to see these tiny beauties (also known as the Honduran White Bat) which I believe are rarer - now classified as a near threatened species, Jake!  Well done!  and I hope they didn't 'bless you' while you laid under their leaf roost......

It's called suffering for our Art Jake,  :D
and this shot was well worth it!  Nicely done.
