El Zotz
Mexican Funnel-eared Bat Zotz is the Mayan Word for “bat”. The biggest bat colony in Guatemala lives in the caves found in this Nature Reserve and this is one of the species found here, Mexican Funnel-eared bat (Natalus stramineus). This bat is member of Natalidae family, an insect specialist eater wide spread from Mexico to Brazil. There are many bat species in the area but the most incredible spectacle is to observe millions of these creatures going out from caves at sunset. Look at Bat Falcons and owls waiting around the cliff and predating the colony is absolutely amazing… Natalus stramineus Posted by Maynor Ovando http://www.birdwatchingguatemala.com/ is a registered trademark of Martsam Tour & Travel Copyright® 2,008 http://www.birdwatchingguatemala.com/ http://www.martsam.com/
