Spotted Bat Balsa Ornament

The spotted bat is easily recognized by its big pink ears and three white spots, one on each shoulder and one on its rump. When at rest, these big ears -- the largest ears of any bat in North America -- roll up around its head.

Made out of sustainably harvested balsa wood, these lightweight ornaments are hand-carved and then painted with non-toxic acrylic paint by a cooperative of skilled artisans on Isla Solentiname, Nicaragua. Approximate size: 5" x 2".
