I will never forget the experience of walking out of my cabin up on Antisana Ecological Reserve in Ecuador
and seeing only some 'big' thing zipping right across in front of my eyes.  Then a few moments later,
some 'big' thing yet again came zipping by.  Didn't even know what it was and didn't even get
a look at it!  Assumed of course it was a bird, but what on earth was that?  Moments later
looking around, found him sitting on a bush.  Of course grabbed the camera and was
able to photograph it.  But what a 'first' experience for a bird.
Folks, these guys are Big!!
