    I never get tired of those beauties! By far the easiest member of a genus that contains some of the most beautiful raptors of the neotropics. They are quite tolerant of disturbed habitats, often soar, and frequently produce loud, characteristic whistles, they're one of these few raptors that you typically spot because you heard them first!
    Even better, I spotted this one right as I was checking into my hotel, and I literally abandoned the clerk at reception, raced to dig my camera out of my backpack, and took the photo while standing on the terrace right by the pool!     Posted 2 years ago
