This page is for the Red-footed Booby (Sula sula). There were a few of these birds flying just over the surface of the water near the bottom of the cliff where we were hiking to a lighthouse. As a result, the birds were quite far away and thus the photos were not too detailed. I had a few shots showing a bit of red at the feet, but the overall image was too blurry. Still, I was very excited to get a photo of one.
