We went out on a nature tour, looking for dolphins, manatees and birds. It was pretty interesting and I really learned a lot about the area and the serious issues they were having. I really didn't know what I had gotten myself into and neither did most of the other passengers. I've been on nature tours where you looked at the animals and got a light dose of environmental management. This tour came with a "very heavy" injection of environmental mismanagement. Although I enjoyed the whole tour and found her views very interesting, it was pretty heavy and I know that some of the people did not.
We got a good look at Magnificent Frigatebirds on those islands, too. I have only even seen them flying. Never nesting.
Funny she kept calling them Magnificent Frigatebirds. I had only ever heard them called Frigatebirds so I thought she just meant that the Frigates were "magnificent."
Until I got back and looked them up in my bird book.. I learned a lot on that nature tour. I think this might be a shot of the Frigates but I realy can't tell and we were a bit far for my camera.
