    Panama (dead) bat ID

    While at the Canopy Tower last month this bat flew into a wall of the building and was found outside one of the bedrooms. Despite having a body, and a field guide I confess to be stymied. My closest guess is Large Footed Bat, Myotis adversus...

The bird appeared noticeably browner above and whiter below than kennecotti and was...
