To describe my lifelong fascination with flight and with creatures that fly I like to echo the words of John James Audubon who in 1839 wrote of himself as "...one who never can cease to admire and to study with zeal and the most heartfelt reverence, the wonderful productions of an Almighty Creator."

Wedge-tailed Shearwater
The Wedge-tailed Shearwater colony at the Kilauea Lighthouse on Kaua'i, Hawaii, is almost literally underfoot. This juvenile appears to be about ready for flight, but was still hanging out near the entrance to it's underground nest on November 12.
