This juvenile lacks the red head of the adult but still has a nice wing pattern it can show off.

Perfect angle and wingspread to show those lovely wing markings, Jim! A fine flight shot of this youngster.

Wow, I would be extremely proud to have taken this photo. It's one thing just to see this species in this plumage, but to capture this full-on dorsal flight view, sharp as all get-out, wow.

I logged in today just so I could comment on your photo.

Thanks Mike. Your photographs appear in some of my reference books and have always been an inspiration for me.
