View large for a visual treat.  This was one of the many head on shots I took to make the collage yesterday.  I like the eyes but also the wings.  Their wings are so huge that they barely have to flick them to move this way and that.  They have to be able to  move quickly and accurately to catch prey which they can and do. They can also float like kites and maintain movement with barely perceptible flaps of their beautiful wings.  Explore Aug 2, #490
