Beautiful species and great to see one not high up in the sky.

Great image, Roy- certainly, not a species that we see photographed in-flight , or if so, very rarely.

Super shot Roy, not only in getting it in flight, but catching all the markings.
Make your life spectacular!

Lovely pose enabling us to see the topside markings on this beautiful bird so clearly, and just enough clearance to see the head over the wing.
