Every photograph has a story behind it. My story of this photo is simple. I was taking photographs of Hummingbirds and out of blue appeared this bird and began to make big circles in the sky. And here he is, beautifully soaring in the air with his legs crossed.
I believe that this is a Red-Winged Hawk but not sure.
Note: I made a mistake. This is Osprey. Cao, thank you!
Osprey, Kaya, osprey ...
ReplyDeleteCao, thank you! I was thinking that he might be osprey :)

DeleteIt is indeed an Osprey. The M shaped wings are quite distinctive.
ReplyDeleteWhy does he cross his feet like that?
ReplyDeleteMe quedo con la belleza de su vuelo, en medio de la infinidad del cielo.

I will have to take the word of others that this is an osprey and, since I love to speculate, my guess would be that the bird's legs are crossed for aerodynamic reasons .... less wind drag = more speed and with less exertion.
ReplyDeleteIn any case, a fabulous photograph, Kaya ....
Buena captura del ave en vuelo, Kaya, bien "congelado" el momento, nada fácil de ejecutar.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Libre y poderosa como lo que son, las dueñas del cielo.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo.
