The Bat Falcon is a small falcon native to the open woodlands and forest clearings of tropical Mexico, Central and South America. The females are larger than males, being about 12 inches long (30.5cm) and males are 9 inches long (23cm) When feeding these falcons perch high on a limb or other tall structure, where they will then drop down and dive bomb potential prey. They are semi-crepuscular, feeing on animals that are active around the twilight hours. As the names implies they hunt bats but will also eat smaller birds and insects, particularly dragonflies. They are not considered endangered.
The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:

Fine art illustration of a Bat Falcon (Falco rufigularis.)
The Bat Falcon was completed on 1.14.2015. This is the last falcon for a collage of falcons of the world I’m putting together. The last falcon was either going to be this species or the Sakar Falcon. Because this species is from the tropics I went with this one. But I’ll probably draw the Sakar at some point. The illustration is based on a photo by Jose Quental and was used with permission.
