Here’s another raptor. This time a Galápagos hawk from Rabida Island in the Galápagos Islands of Ecuador. As with most of the wildlife on the islands, there is a lack of fear of human visitors. The animals seem to be more curious than anything else, or they just ignore the fact that you are even there. This guy fell into the former camp. He was bobbing his head left and right, checking me out while I captured a series of tight headshots.
