Bats, Bats and more Bats

Kendra and I had the opportunity to join Liz Braun de Torrez from Boston University this last Saturday night. Liz is working on her Ph.D. and focussing on bats that are feeding on insects in Pecan groves. We had fun photographing four different species, Red Bat, Cave Myotis, Evening Bat, and Eastern Pipistrelle. Here is an example of each bat.

About Me

My Photo
I'm Curator of Entomology at the University of Texas at Austin. Over the last 15 years I have focused on dragonflies and damselflies. I recently wrote a book on this group in Texas and the South-central United States that was published by Princeton University Press. It contains many of my photos. I am currently working on two field guides for Texas dragonflies and damselflies to be published by the University of Texas Press. I have had the opportunity to travel extensively throughout Latin America, Africa and other parts of the world where I enjoy taking photos of pretty much anything that will allow me to capture its image.
