San José Nights:

On my last trip, I spent a night in San José, Costa Rica in a hotel that had lots of hummingbird feeders. Except that most of the feeding occurred at night. And not by hummingbirds.


At night, a gentle flutter at the hummingbird feeder... 

...led to my discovery of these fellows, about twenty of them, who emptied out the feeders in a flash. Bats. Nectar feeders, who were a little spooked by me, but quickly regained confidence as I remained frozen with outstretched camera arm on the veranda.

Bony little bugger...
