Lobos
Chino gave us a lift, a very short
ride to Isla Lobos. As the name suggests it wasn’t a surprise to see a nursing mother, who immediately smiled for the clicking
cameras.
The noise of the outboard brought in
some youngsters who put on a bit of a
show.
After running the gauntlet of the
soundo masses we saw Great Frigatebirds doing their
stuff.
Instead of the ‘doof, doof, doof’
noise of the Magnificent Frigatebirds moving their gular sacs (that we heard on
Barbuda), these chaps make noises like turkeys and waggle their wonderful red appendage in a flirting fashion. We saw
others flying with a deflated sac.
Some boys were
gathering twigs, others were preening to look
their best and some of the girls were completely
disinterested.
We followed the path and soon came
upon a lovely lad with smashing blue feet who didn’t mind a chat.
What a lovely
face.
At the end of the path we found
ourselves on the beach. Kicker
Rock away in the distance.
Daniel, our temporary whisperer
engages a lava lizard.
A chap enjoys the
sun.
A chap in the
shade and one sunbathing.
Along the beach and along another
path, passing a Galapagos Cotton Flower.
How cute is the
baby.
I know, more
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
As we wait for Chino to pick us up
this chap gives us one look and promptly flops across the path.
ALL IN ALL IT JUST KEEPS
