This bird is a real treat to watch. So beautiful. And seem to be so full of energy. The last shot is not good, but it gives a general idéa of how it looks in the air. :)

  5. Fantastic birds; great captures.
    And that video is amazing. Love how they pitch forward. I can see how they got their name.

  6. Gorgeous bird. Minus the beak it's kind hawkish. Also, was excited to see a Costa Rican watermelon tree!

I love comments so please write something. I usually responds to everyone on their own blogs. But nowadays I often find it impossible to comment on many blogs or on Google+. Often the word verifications is unreadable. And after three times I give up. Other times the systems seems to think I am a spammer. Lots of bloggers loose comments that way. :( So, if you don´t see me comment on your blog that is the reason.
