Tide was up
Lots of little fish for the sea birds
Tiny speck is a bird
White tern
On the hunt
Ready to dive soon
No colorful sunset tonight
Wish the sun had come out
Diving
A long shot to get
Far away from the ship
Captured the bird
Heading back to the island
Everyone went home for the day
Leaving now for New Zealand
Treacherous cliffs
Clayton’s Club
A better view of the low-laying island
The quarry wall on the left
We walked well past this area
Some blowholes on the coast
The southeastern part of the island
Looks just like whale blows
This is a resort far away from the village of Alofi
Explosive
Few people at sail away
Must be more impressive with high seas
An isolated resort
Finally…..the tropicbirds
The telltale tails
Graceful
May be a pair
Or a fledgling and mom
Only saw a few
A fishing bird
Flags up for the sail away
Island barely visible now
Wow, a mean-looking hornet
Taking a ride on the back railing
Heading southwest now
