Though the landscapes are pristine and beautiful, it’s really the Galapagos wildlife that’s the star of the islands. The Galapagos Islands are one of the best places in the world for bird-watching.
According to Galapagos Conservancy, the islands have fifty-six native bird species, of which forty-five are endemic, meaning they are not found anywhere else. Not only are there so many species, but the birds have no fear of predators. You can get unbelievably close to them.
Honestly, before this trip neither of us paid much attention to birds. We went to the Galapagos for their rare animal wildlife. However, when a baby Blue Footed Booby walks straight up to your lens, it’s hard not to get excited
We hope one day you get to experience these magical islands. Nowhere in the world is like the Galapagos. For bird watchers, these islands are a bucket list must.
