How fortunate it was for us to see 2 flamingoes in a territorial fight!

On the island of Espanola...the nasca boobies are everywhere...
Incredible island of salt bushes, iguanas and sea lions.
The waves crash against the rocks, the sea lions lie on the beach and the male iguanas do their push ups on the rocks...What an incredible place!
