Here are nets in a rice field.

Here's a net beside a mountain camp where I caught great bats.

Here's a net in a chicken yard on an island off Bocas del Toro, Panama. You might think that a chicken yard would not be the greatest place for bats, but actually I caught a bird vampire here which hadn't been known outside South America before. We now know that there are several relic populations of bird vampires all the way up to Mexico.

To catch forest canopy bats for the first time ever, we rigged nets along boardwalks through swamps at the mouth of the Amazon. Our rigs had three nets in tandem, one above the other. This made a huge net face that one person could hoist like a sail, up to 30 meters high. I'm still working on that project of bats of the canopy.
