Mockingbirds Approach Camera – Reflections of Nature

The mocking birds, like many of the other wildlife found in the Galapagos are quite naïve because of the lack of land predators on the islands. On our landing at Gardner Bay we were greeted by the Española Mockingbird. Apparently because of the lack of water on the island, these birds see humans as a potential source of water. At every opportunity you can see these guys searching through our belongings hoping to quench their thirst with whatever their little beaks could find.
