Bat ID please
I put this in the bird section first of all but Jane said I should try my luck in the mammal section. She also said it has an uncommonly cheery look, I think it looks as though it would like to take a bite out me. Maybe a smiling assassin.
Can someone ID for me please. many thanks Dave |

Looks very like a Seba's Bat (Carollia perspicillata) - a widespread neotropical fruit eating species, but I don't know offhand what the confusion species in your area might be. They are cave roosters but are occasionally found in buildings.
