Description
The almost hypnotic gaze of the red eyes of a Peruvian booby (Sula variegata), a common seabird off the Pacific coasts of Chile and Peru which are washed by the cold Humboldt Current. Non breeding birds can wander north to Colombia, especially in El Nino years. It feeds in the same way as gannets, plunging dramatically into the sea from a considerable height to catch fish.
