Crested Caracara

 

The local sewage lagoons on Cayo Coco provide excellent opportunities to observe and photograph Least Grebes, Whistling Ducks, Black-Necked Stilts and an assortment of other shorebirds. However, on this day as I was busy trying to get images of American Avocets, a Crested Caracara came flying across the lagoon.


Crested Caracara are fairly common on Cuba and I have photographed many perched or on the ground, however this was the first time I have been able to get an image of one in flight.
