As long as I don't run out of sugar or battery power, I'm continuing my Bat Watch.

Bats are cool! Unless they are in your hair or drinking your blood. Nice, revealing, shots Norm.

Thanks Ron, After a little research and talking to a guy who knows bats, the ones I have been dealing with are federally endangered lesser long nosed bats (Leptonycteris curasoae)

Glad you like them. They are fun photographing. With a 14 in. wing span the are easier to photograph than the little insect eating bats we get around here.

Thanks Ken, So far they haven't been in my hair nor have they drank my blood.. I'd never handle one of them without gloves because bats seem to be more susceptible to rabies than many other mammals.

Thanks Morris, Tonight I'm trying a different feeder. It's a tubular type and I'm trying to get a shot of their long tongue. So far they aren't taking it. We'll see how smart they are.
