20070804za_Isabela_BoobyFeedingFrenzy Evening Booby Feeding, Isabela

Just minutes after we returned from Elizabeth Bay, our guide spotted, from at least half a mile away, this huge flock of boobies feeding on a large school of fish. From high in the air they would plummet beak-first into the water. With so many of them doing this, it was amazing to watch. A few brown noddies were hanging around, too.
