An Orange Nectar Bat visiting a hummingbird feeder at Canopy Lodge in El Valle de Anton, Panama.
These large nectar bats can be found from Nicaragua through southern Central America and into South America. As can be seen, they are frequent visitors to hummingbird feeders in search of their favorite food.
This image was shot off-hand using a pocket camera.
