Little bear hug! Here is a bit of a variation of an image I shared last month – this was from an amazing morning this past August on the coast of Katmai National Park, Alaska.

Bats!

Bat, Marana, Arizona.

It has been awhile since I have photographed bats. There were so many of them in the Chiricahua Mountains, that I started to play around with them again, although unsuccessfully since I didn’t have my proper trigger. Bats have really been hitting our humminging bird feeders in Marana, so set up again last night with good success.

On an occasional photo, I had ghosting, but not consistently. I have a feeling that might be due to the Camptraption flash triggers. I don’t think they are ideal for this – I used them since they stay “awake” all night. Tonight, I’ll try Phottix Ares II. The only drawback with them is that they turn off with a hour of inactivity. They shouldn’t be a problem, there are lots of bats!
