text: Augur Buzzard Hunting.<br /> <br /> From an elevated viewpoint we fortunately were able to catch a great look at this handsome raptor.<br /> <br /> Such a cool perch, though a bit unfortunate as we had too much sun, so preferring - overcast would have been nice. The backside view turned out nice with the green background. We had a good look at those beautiful feathers, with a nice head turn.<br /> <br /> I believe we had this chance while descending into the crater, easily a good 2,000-foot drop from the high walls around the perimeter.<br /> <br /> Always a treat!<br /> <br /> ray@raymondbarlow.com
