The best view of a bluefooted booby in the Galápagos was on the Tintoreras, the small islets next to the wharf at Puerto Villamil on Isabela. No mistaking the identification here.
I'm now in Arequipa in the south of Peru; next stop Puno and Lake Titicaca. The Galápagos seem so long ago now, but I'll never forget them.

Oh, I know they SAY blue footed, and I believe them, but holy mackerel, them's blue feet. Stunning.
Thanks Zhoen. The blue really is unbelievable. I was probably close to that colour after snorkelling there, though.
Such an excellently sharp photo of this amazingly blue-footed bird. Gorgeous.
Thank you, Robin :^)
Spectacular!
They are, Lydia :^)
