Parakeet feeding in a Wayaka tree

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.
