We anchored beside this island and noticed that there were a lot of Pelicans nesting. Bless them, they sat on their nests and just looked out to sea, there was no noise at all. Apparently , even though more than 1 chick will hatch, the strongest chick kicks the others out of the nest, so it really is survival of the fittest!!
