So I was at the Ft Lauderdale Air and Sea Show this weekend, and while i was shooting jets occasionally a pelican would fly over me and distract me, but when this flew over it took priority. I can't express how psyched i was to have this beautiful Pereigrine fly right over my head.

Very nice shot Billy. These are suppose to be pretty rare. I've seen 2 in my area.
One swooped by before I had a chance to get a shot. The other chased away a RTH'
here in the East Bay Hills. It was still too far away to get a good shot, even though
I tried. So I agree, totally cool...
