Today we got up really early and got into dinghies to take a tour of the mangroves. While we were there a whole group of blue-footed boobies were getting their meal. We watched as they all flew around and then simultaneously dive-bombed the water to grab something to eat. They continuously did this. We all just sat watching in amazement. As they plunged into the water it looked as if the hundreds of them all suddenly dropped dead. Luckily I was able to get a video of this. Around the mangroves we also saw stingrays, sea turtles, sharks and lots of birds. After the mangroves we went back to our boat and went to Baltra where we got on a plane to go back to Quito.
