    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    Yes it says they are Chilean on the plaque
    The video some times takes a bit longer to load.
    Yes they are cute. It will grow up to look like it's mother and it will grow an upside down beak.
