boobies

• 19 comments •


The animal that we saw most frequently on shirts, postcards, and tour itineraries in the Galapagos was the blue footed booby. We were pretty disappointed that we didn't even see one on the first 5 days on Puerto Ayora. On our tour to Isabela we finally saw hundreds of them.

    Ana - South Africa's internet connections have not been kind to us. We're going to Kruger - can't promise that there won't be some gaps, but hopefully we can schedule some posts!
