The Giant Galapagos Tortoise lives to be 200 years old but is very endangered. The Frigate male has a bright red gular pouch that is inflated when they are breeding. The Iquanas are fearsome looking but harmless. The land Iguanas are very colorful, whereas the marine Iquanas are greys and backs and blend in with the rocks. The waved Albatross is the largest Galapagos bird. Last and most unusual is the rare and endangered Blue Shirted Boobie.

Hi Si and Nancy,
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures. You certainly look as if you have had a fantastic time. Nice to see you both looking so, so happy. Traveling to interesting and exotic places obviously agrees with you. You both seem to have shed at least twenty years!!!...It must be something to do with the Giant Galapagos Tortoise that has rubbed onto you!!!!! Keep traveling.
Lots of Love,
