The wee one (Hieraaetus morphnoides)

We drove around the Porongurups, stopping here and there for interesting spots, walks and views (of which there were many of all).

At one place, overlooking Mount Barker, we had pulled up when this Little Eagle flew over. I just managed to catch him before he went out of sight!
