My boss, knowing I appreciate a good nature shot as much as the next
guy, forwarded me this incredible image. I believe it is "going
viral", but if you haven't already seen it, it is worth a look. I?ve
seen many remarkable nature photographs over the years but this photo
of a nesting Falcon is perhaps the most remarkable Nature shot that
I?ve ever seen. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Nature is truly
breath-taking, isn't it?

Judging by the rear plate and the fact that it appears to be nesting in
a gum tree, what you have there is the Greater Rusty Australian Falcon.
Not an especially rare species but not often seen in a nest.
I could see it's RHD, which was a clue to its origin.
I'm mildly curios how it got up there & would be interested to know how
high up there is. Here in the U.S. it's more common to see them on the
ground with the tree-trunk growing up through them.
