A young raptor

I almost missed this young Black-thighed Falconet until it started to chase off all the birds that came to the tree.

This is one bird that rarely comes down to a relatively low tree so it could be because it's still a young one, perhaps still learning to hunt.
Who would believe that it could be a raptor hunter with such a cute look!  Deceptive indeed!

It continued to fly about either hoping to get a prey or simply trying to establish its dominance as a raptor, perching from time to time.
