January Birds
White Tern Chick
Red-footed Boobie
Masked Boobie
Brown Boobies
Hybrid or Albinism
This was my favorite nest on the island. The picture doesn't do it justice. The adults on this nest were also rockstars, they were the only ones with a chick still alive in their neighborhood when I left. They were located in a really rough part of town exposed to a lot of lake foam.
This adult was almost as chill as Tod and let me take pictures of its' pipping egg (the chick was in the process of hatching).
