Blue Footed Booby Hovering before Diving

Species: Blue Footed Booby | Location: Espumilla Beach, Santiago, Galapagos Islands., Ecuador

While in the Galapagos Islands, we were treated to a display of Blue Footed Boobies fishing for food. They would fly high, hover looking down for fish, and then dive. Very aggressive birds!
