The Malaysian flying fox (Pteropus vampyrus) is among the largest bats in the world with a wingspan up to almost 5 feet. It feeds exclusively on fruits, nectar and flowers. The Malaysian flying fox does not have the ability to echolocate, similar to other Old World fruit bats.

Art Dodd is a self-taught photographer currently living in South Florida who’s been photographing since 1975. Originally educated as an Electrical Engineer, he retired in 2010 to become a volunteer Florida Park Ranger at Jonathan Dickinson State Park. This gets him up close and personal with nature, one of his favorite subjects to photograph. He also enjoys travelling to and photographing other places. Various trips have taken him to places like Panama, Alaska, Maine, Mexico, Costa Rica, Spain, and others. In addition to nature photography, he photographs events for District 8 (South Florida) and the Palm Beach Sail and Power Squadron of the United States Power Squadrons and has had photographs published in many of their newsletters.
