Skimming over the Indian Ocean...

Photo: Sue Forbes
The photo above, entitled 'Flight' , by photographer Sue Forbes of the UK., was 'Highly Commended' in the Behaviour: Birds category of the 2018 Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition in London, England.   The bird is a juvenile Red-footed Booby (Sula sula) and is seen circling northeast of D'Arros Island in the Outer Islands of the Seychelles.   These birds, smallest of the boobies, spend most of their time at sea, where they swoop down to seize mainly squid and flying fish.
