Yes. A lot of power, in fact. Power consumption in receive mode is
comparable to the power consumption in transmit mode. You can check
the data sheet of the transceiver (RF230 for the iris, CC2420 for the
telos/micaz) for the exact figures.

Use low-power listening then. Please make sure to read TEP 105 to
understand how it works.
