Isabela Brunch

Species: Great blue heron , marine iguana | Location: Galapagos Islands, Ecuador

We were on Isla Isabela in the Galapagos Island on a morning hike through an area favored by marine iguanas. This was the second baby iguana taken by this particular heron in a span of less than 10 minutes.

About The Photographer
