Bird watching in the Galapagos Islands
 |
In the Galapagos Islands there are more
than 58 species of birds and most of these birds have either
lost, or not evolved, a fear of human visitors. Therefore
travelers can walk among colonies of blue-footed boobies or
magnificent frigatebirds without causing them to fly off. |
