I noticed these guys hunting in packs,



and when they find their catch, watch out...

Where did you see them, Peter? They are normally found either at the Galápagos Islands or other islands in the Eastern Pacific. If it was the Galápagos Islands, I'll wager you have many more interesting images to post!

Thanks Frank, it was at Galapagos and yes there were some great shots. If you have been there I am waiting to pick up a framed 10 shot panorama off the top of Bartolome Island, one of the new islands with remnants of volcanic craters and still bare of vegetation.

Hi Peter, I am guilty of lusting for a chance to go there but it is out of my budget. I am looking forward to seeing your future shots of the Galápagos. I had not seen the Blue Footed Boobies in flight before. I think its because everybody take pictures of their blue feet!

Blue footed Boobies.....I think I had a wind-up to that fit that description. It fell off the desk and broke. Nice Peter I don't think I have seen them in flight either. I also look forward to seeing your other shots as it is somewhere I have wished to visit even before I ventured into photography.
