birds in the sky male frigate birds


This was a really nice paddle. The wind was against us, if I recall correctly, and as evidence, we took only three photos for this adventure, meaning both of us were paddling.

We saw a Blue Footed Booby perched on a rock until a hawk came and frightened him away. The new King of the Mountain took his seat.

A lot of Frigate Birds were on the island and many of the males were showing off for the ladies by inflating their red pouches. It was not obvious that the ladies thought this was great, but then again we are not Frigate Birds.
