Reports From The Field Galapagos My Way
At midday we enjoyed our lunch on board as we sailed westward to Punta Suárez. Most of us made the walk across lava terrain to see the largest bird in the Galápagos Islands, the waved albatross. Virtually the entire population—12,000 pairs—of albatross nests here from April to December. Other features of the island include red-billed tropicbirds, blue-footed and Nazca boobies, swallow-tailed gulls, and dramatic views of the famous blowhole surrounded by colorful red-and-green marine iguanas.
