Sunrise! |
A friendly little Galapagos Sea Lion blocking our path to the beach on Espanola Island |
|
These are called Sally Lightfoot Crabs |
Here's a closer view. We saw these all over the rocks, but they're ususally not so close as this one was. |
The famous Galapgaos Marine Iguana. The iguanas on Espanola Island are the most colorful in all of the Galapgaos Islands. |
The iguanas are everywhere - we had to be careful not to step on them... |
A colony of Galapagos Sea Lions on the beach that we first arrived on. The male of the colony is resting in the background. |
The first of many, many Blue Footed Boobies that we saw today. The bird in front is doing a mating dance (this is mating season for these guys...) |
Kissing boobies! |
These guys are so photogenic! |
As our hike progressed, David and Katie became braver about sitting close to these guys. Here, they were still keeping their distance! |
