Honduran white bats (Ectophylla alba) roosting in a leaf tent in Costa Rica. The male is the one with its eyes open. Many rain forest bats form their homes by cutting midribs of large leaves to form “tents.”

A pocketed free-tailed bat (Nyctinomops femorosaccus) in Arizona… and we wish it was pocketed in our pocket. … 😒🙄🫠🤭😋 Go on then, you try to make a clever pocketed-free-tailed-bat-joke…
