Mangoes

Two beautiful mangoes. These are from a garden. There are a lot of mango trees on the island. There is also a Hofi Mango (private) and of course the Parakeets love the mangoes.

Hófi Mango, Bandabou.

But then, they love the seeds or berries of the Wayaka tree too. They come to our garden every morning for a feast.

Mirrors and Bird play

This morning I heard loud screeching and flapping of wings. Suspecting something horrible was going on, I went outside. Only to find a young Flycatcher trying to cling on to the window of our car door to see its reflection.
From the window, it fluttered to the mirror. From there it jumped down to the door again, trying to see itself in the mirror.
This play went on for at least half an hour. Sorry to not film this bird play, but I got some nice shots. Femia Cools.
