I recently took a fantastic trip sailing in the Caribbean out of Belize with some dear friends. I have lots of pictures to edit and share soon. This one, however, is my favorite. Can anyone identify this raptor?

Wow!!
From a good veterinarian source, it is an opsrey. Tom
Thanks so much Tom! I had found a couple of pictures of something called a “hawk eagle” or a “sea hawk,” but it appears these are just different names for an osprey … so the professional judgment is much appreciated!
