Wonderful low camera angle of this striking raptor. That must have been some soft sand (lol). Excellent work Peter!

Ooooh!!! I didn't know you'd been to the Galapagos Peter.... oh you lucky lad you!!!

A super picture you've taken of this lovely hawk, not one we see coming in too often, for obvious reasons! Many thanks lad.

A merry Christmas to you and Adrienne.
