On the way into La Paz on one of our visits there we came upon a whale shark, probably about 15 feet long, so likely a youngster. He came and checked us out. Note his free riding friends on his back

I never get tired of these birds and watching them fly. When you see groups of them flying together that is flight school, when you see 2 that is private lessons, when you see one that's a solo flight. (many thanks to my friend Elaine from Windarra for that great description)

Hitchhiker? When the sun came up on our way to Isla Isabella I was surprised to discover a Peli hitch hitch hiking on the bow of the boat. It was very funny to watch him get off the boat. Note the special present he left on the deck!!

Again wish I had a better picture but it was so exciting to see a Tropic Bird which looks a lot like a tern with a long streaming tail.

The frigate birds (thieves) and the booby birds (hard working) are in a constant struggle for food, booby catches frigate tries to steal. Not a great picture but if you are able to zoom you can see that the booby's head is contorted backwards trying to defend itself
