I think this shows off some of the flying skills of this raptor, the twisted tail and the different lift from the two wings as he heads across the shore reef. Male of the pair who patrol my local beach each afternoon.

Excellent incoming flight shot with an interesting pose. Nice to have a pair close by.

Very acrobatic - nice shot to show his agility. Never saw anything like that. Interesting.

Fabulous pose Greg. Just shows what they have to do to keep on the flight track.
Make your life spectacular!
