The rain creates that special mood, and the Vulture is superb! Beautiful work, Jeff.

Another beauty Jeff! Fantastic framing on the perch and the rain just brings it over the top and the colors are amazing. This is a good stuff.

Everything about this photo is "first class"; habitat, colors, and most of all, the beautiful bird. Thanks for sharing this Jeff.

Just killer Jeff. I love the rain falling and the bird still manages to really pop out at you. A new favourite image of this bird.
Thanks for looking,

Great image! What a regal bird! And that perch, decorated by the bromelias, is something else!
