These images were gathered by two friends of mine who travel a lot…they especially like Latin America, and this fellow was in Argentina.  This falcon was along the banks of the Rio de la Plata at a nature reserve in Buenos Aires

He is a Southern Crested Caracara.  He has similar cousins that you may have seen in Texas or Costa Rica or Mexico or Panama.
Here’s more info on this species.

Thanks to Fritz Lichty for sharing these pictures.  Safe travel, friends.
