Hola Amigo’s how are you all this fine evening?? I just got home from a super fun evening at Saint Joris. After work I loaded the dogs and met two of my co-workers, Loet, and Laura and their two boyfriends and off we went for a fun evening of hiking and photography. We started out by walking my new mountain bike trail first and that popped us out at the “palm tree oasis” and from there we followed the waters edge back to the car which took around two hours. Both girls came equipped with cameras and were constantly stopping to shoot something, I think it’s safe to say they had a great time. It’s been so long since I have taken guests out there that I had kind of forgotten just how magical that place can be, it’s really beautiful. We didn’t see any Cara-Cara’s tonight but Loet did find a barrel cactus with five little blooming pink flowers and some real nice pieces of driftwood which they carried all the way back to the car. It was a fun night, the dogs are now asleep and that alone was worth the trip.
Here’s a real cool bird photo I again took out in my backyard yesterday for your viewing pleasure, these are the beautiful Bare Eyed Pigeons. I was hiding in a bush across from them with my 200mm lens and the funny thing is they knew I was there! You can see the look of curiosity and distrust in their eyes, they wanted to fly down below and eat the seed I had laid out but with every click of the shutter it just made them all the more ready to take flight! Here in Curacao the Dutch call these birds Naaktoogduif, say that 10 times real fast! The locals also have a different name as well and they call them Alablanka, in Aruba they are called Barbakoa, Warakoa and in Bonaire they are known as Warbakoa, crazy huh??
We had a really nice family stop by and look at the puppies tonight so please cross your fingers and say a prayer for us. That’s about it, I did a reef dive today and still need to download photos, see you tomorrow, Curacao regards, Barry
